Physics Ncert Solutions Class 12th

A multirange current meter can be constructed by using a galvanometer circuit as shown in figure. We want a current meter that can measure 10 mA, 100 mA and 1 mA using a galvanometer of resistance 10 Ω  and that produces maximum deflection for current of 1 mA. Find S₁ ,S₂ and S₃ that have to be used.

Consider a circular current-carrying loop of radius R in the x-y plane with centre at origin. Consider the line integral ζ ( L ) = | ${\int }_{-\mathit{L}}^{\mathit{L}}\mathit{B}.\mathit{d}\mathit{l}$ | taken along z-axis.

(a) Show that ? ( ) monotonically increases with L.

(b) Use an appropriate Amperian loop to show that ζ ( ∞ ) = ?0? , where I is the current in the wire.

(c) Verify directly the above result.

(d) Suppose we replace the circular coil by a square coil of sides R carrying the same current I. What can you say about ζ ( L ) and ζ ( ∞ ) ?

Explanation- B(z) points in the same direction on z-axis and hence , J(L) isa monotonically function of L so B.dl = B.dl as cos 0 = 1

(b) $\int B.dl={\mu }_{o}I$ but when L $\to$ $\infty$

So B $\propto$ 1/r³

(c) the magnetic field due to a circular current carrying loop of radius in the xy plane with centre at origin at any point lying at a distance of from origin.

B= $\frac{{\mu }_{0}I{R}^2}{2{(Z^2+R^2)}^{3/2}}$

Z=Rtan $\theta$

dz=Rsec² $\theta d\theta$

${\int }_{-\infty }^{\infty }{B}_{z}dz=\frac{{\mu }_{0}I}{2}{\int }_{-\pi /2}^{\pi /2}cos\theta d\theta$ = ${\mu }_{0}I$

(a) In a quark model of elementary particles, a neutron is made of one up quarks [charge (2/3)e] and two down quarks [charges (-l/3)e]. Assume that they have a triangle configuration with side length of the order of 10^-15  Calculate electrostatic potential energy of neutron and compare it with its mass 939 MeV.

(b) Repeat above exercise for a proton which is made of two up and one down quark.

Consider a circular current-carrying loop of radius R in the x-y plane with centre at origin. Consider the line integral ζ ( L ) = | ${\int }_{-\mathit{L}}^{\mathit{L}}\mathit{B}.\mathit{d}\mathit{l}$ | taken along z-axis.

A uniform conducting wire of length 12a and resistance R is wound up as a current carrying coil in the shape of (i) an equilateral triangle of side a, (ii) a square of sides a, and (iii) a regular hexagon of sides a. The coil is connected to a voltage source V₀. Find the magnetic moment of the coils in each case.

An electron and a positron are released from (0, 0, 0) and (0, 0, 1.5R) respectively, in a uniform magnetic field B = B₀i, each with an equal momentum of magnitude p = eBR. Under what conditions on the direction of momentum will the orbits be non-intersecting circles?

A rectangular conducting loop consists of two wires on two opposite sides of length l joined together by rods of length d. The wires each are of the same material but with cross-sections differing by a factor of 2. The thicker wire has a resistance R and the rods are of low resistance, which in turn are connected to a constant voltage source V0. The loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field B at 45° to its plane. Find T, the torque exerted by the magnetic field on the loop about an axis through the centres of rods.

A 100 turn rectangular coil ABCD (in X-Y plane) is hung from one arm of a balance (shown in figure). A mass 500 g is added to the other arm to balance the weight of the coil. A current 4.9 A passes through the coil and a constant magnetic field of 0.2 T acting inward (in x-z plane) is switched on such that only arm CD of length 1 cm lies in the field. How much additional mass m must be added to regain the balance?
