Questions Related to magnetic field produced in a circular loop

Chose the correct statement from the following:

  1. Electric current is a scalar quantity

  2. Charge carries in metals are ions

  3. The area of current- time graph gives charge

  4. A charge in motion produces both electric and magnetic field


Correct Option: A,C,D
Explanation:
$(i)$ Option- $A$ is correct, since current has no directional attribute to it, it is a scalar quantity.
$(ii)$ Option- $B$ is correct, Charge carries in metal are free electrons whereas in electrolytic solution they are ions
$(iii)$ Option- $C$ is correct because $i=\dfrac{da}{dt}\Rightarrow =i dt \Rightarrow a=\displaystyle \int{i. dt}$
$\displaystyle \int{i. dt}$ is the area under current-time graph
$(iv)$ Option- $D$ is correct, charge in motion produces current which in term produces magnetic field.

Two long parallel wires A and B separated by a distance d, carry currents $i _1$ and $i _2$ respectively in the same direction. Write the following steps in a sequential order to find the magnitude of the resultant magnetic field at a point 'P', which is between the wires and is a distance '$x$' from the wire A.
(All the physical quantities are measured in SI units)
(a) Note the given values of $i _1, i _2$, $d$ and $x$.
(b) Write the formula to find the magnetic field due to a long straight current carrying wire i.e. $\displaystyle B=\frac{\mu _0 i}{2 \pi r}$
(c) Find the directions of the magnetic field at 'P' due to two wires A and B, using right hand thumb rule.
(d) Determine the magnetic field at P due to wire A, using $B _1 \displaystyle = \frac{\mu _0 i _1}{2 \pi x}$
(e) If the directions of magnetic field are same, then the resultant magnitude is equal to the sum of $B _1$ and $B _2$.
(f) Determine the magnetic field $B _2$ due to wire B at point P, ie. $B _2 = \displaystyle \frac{\mu _o i _2}{2 \pi (d-x)}$
(g) If the directions of magnetic fields are opposite to each other, then the resultant magnitude is equal to the difference of $B _1$ and $B _2$.

Consider a region where both uniform electric and magnetic fields E and B are present both along the z-axis. A positively charged particle of charge and mass is released from the origin with an initial velocity ${{\text{V}} _e}\hat i$. Which of the following option(s) are correct?

  1. (A)The y coordinate of the particle at time ${\text{t}} = \frac{{\pi {\text{M}}}}{{{\text{qB}}}}{\text{ is}}\frac{{ - 2{\text{mv}}}}{{{\text{qB}}}}$

  2. (B)The distance between two consecutive point on the z-axis where the particle touches the Z-axis is an odd multiple of a constant distance.

  3. (C)The distance between two consecutive point on the z-axis where the particle touches the Z-axis is an even multiple of a constant distance.

  4. (D)The time after which the particle touches the z-axis is $\frac{{2\pi {\text{m}}}}{{{\text{qB}}}}$


Correct Option: A
