Spherical insulating ball and a spherical metallic ball of same size and mass are dropped from the same height. Choose the correct statement out of the following

\{

Assume negligible air friction

\}

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

Insulating ball will reach the earth's surface earlier than the metal ball

The correct answer is Insulating ball will reach the earth's surface earlier than the metal ball. The changing magnetic flux due to the Earth's magnetic field induces eddy currents in the metal ball, creating a retarding force.

Assertion (A): Whenever the magnetic flux linked with a closed coil changes there will be an induced emf as well as an induced current.

Reason (R): According to Faraday, the induced emf is inversely proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux linked with a coil. The coefficient of mutual inductance of two coils is

6\,\,mH

. If the current flowing in one is

2\,\,ampere

, then the induced e.m.f. in the second coil will be The induced emf cannot be produced by: Consider the statements:
(I)If magnetic field,

\mathrm{B = 0}

, then magnetic flux is also zero.
(II)If magnetic flux,

\phi = 0,

then magnetic field is also zero. The coefficient of self inductance of a solenoid is 0.18 mH. If a rod of soft iron of relative permeability 900 is inserted, then the coefficient of self inductance (in mH ) will become nearly: A uniformly wound solenoidal coil of self inductance
