Analyzing +4 | -1

Statement I - A bar magnet can exert torque on itself due to it's own field.

Statement II - One element of a current carrying wire can exert a force on another element of same wire.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Statement

I

is true; Statement II is true

Option D (Statement

I

is false; Statement II is true) is correct because a bar magnet cannot exert a torque on itself, but one element of a current-carrying wire can exert a force on another element of the same wire.

Which of the following statements is not true A current loop in a magnetic field Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): When currents vary with time, Newton’s third law is valid only if momentum carried by the electromagnetic field is taken into account.
Statement (II): Ampere's circuital law does not depend on Biot-Savart’s law.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below: The magnetic field due to current carrying a circular loop of radius
