4.24 Magnetic field strength, B = 3000G = 3000 T = 0.3 T
Length of the rectangular loop, l = 10 cm
Width of the rectangular loop, b = 5 cm
Area of the loop, A = l = 10 = 50 = 50
Current in the loop, I = 12 A
Assume that the anti-clockwise direction of the current is positive and vice versa.
Torque, =
From the given figure, it can be observed that A is normal to the y-z plane and B is directed along z-axis.
= 12*( 50 = Nm
The Torque is Nm along the negative y-direction.
The force on the loop is zero because the angle between A & B is zero.
This case is similar to case (a). The answer is same as case (a)
Torque, = I

4.23 Magnetic field strength, B = 1.5 T
Radius of the cylindrical region, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m
Current in the wire passing through the cylindrical region, I = 7 A
If the wire intersect the axis, then the length of the wire is the diameter of the cylindrical region, then l = 2r = 0.2 m
Angle between the magnetic field,
Magnetic force acting on the wire is given by the relation,
F = BIl = 1.5 = 2.1 N
Hence, a force of 2.1 N acts on the wire in a vertically downward direction.
If the wire is turned from N-S to NE-NW direction, new length of the wire can be given as
Angle between magnetic field and current = 45
Force on the wire,
F = BI =

4.22 Current in both the wires, I = 300 A
Distance between the wires, r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m
Length of the two wires, l = 70 cm = 0.7 m
Now, force between the two wires is given by the relation:
F = , where = Permeability of free space = 4 T m
Hence F = N/m = 1.2 N/m
Since the direction of the current in the wires is opposite, a repulsive force exists between them.

4.21 Length of the rod. l= 0.45 m
Mass suspended by the wire, m = 60 g = 60 kg
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/
Current, I = 5 A
To achieve zero tension, the magnetic field = weight of the wire
BIl = mg or
B = = = 0.26 T
The magnetic field should be set up such that it gives an upward magnetic force.
If the direction of current is reversed, then the magnetic force will act downwards and total tension in the wire will be
mg + BIl = 60 = 1.173 T

4.20 Magnetic field, B = 0.75 T
Accelerating voltage, V = 15 kV = 15 V
Electrostatic field, E = 9.0 V/m
Let the mass of electron = m, Charge of the electron = e, Velocity of the electron = v
Then kinetic energy of the electron = eV
m = eV or = ………….(1)
Since the particle remains un-deflected by electric and magnetic field, we can infer that the electric field is balancing the magnetic field.
Hence eE = evB or v = ………(2)
Combining equation (1) and (2), we get
= = = 48 C/kg
This value of specific charge e/m is equal to the value of deuteron or deuterium ions. This is not a unique answer. Other possible answers ar

4.19 Magnetic field strength, B = 0.15 T
Charge on the electron, e = 1.6 C
Mass of the electron, m = 9.1
Potential difference, V = 2.0 kV = 2 V
Thus the kinetic energy of the electron = eV = m , where v = velocity of electron
v = …….(1)
Magnetic force on the electron provides the required centripetal force of the electron. Hence, electron traces a circular path of radius r
Magnetic force on the electron = Bev
Centripetal force
Hence, Bev =
r = ………………(2)
From equation (1) and (2), we get
r =

r = 1.006 m = 1.0 mm
Hence, the electron has a circular trajectory of radius 1.0 mm normal to the magnetic field.

4.18 (a) The initial velocity of the particle is either parallel or anti-parallel to the magnetic field. Hence, it travels along a straight path without suffering any deflection in the field.
(b) Yes, the final speed of the particle will be equal to its initial speed. This because magnetic force can change the direction of velocity, not its magnitude.
(c) This moving electron can remain undeflected if the electric force acting on it is equal and opposite of magnetic field. Magnetic force is directed towards the south. According to Fleming's left hand rule, magnetic field should be applied in a vertically downward direction.

4.17 Inner radius of the toroid, = 25 cm = 0.25 m
Outer radius of the toroid, = 26 cm = 0.26 m
Number of turns on the coil, N = 3500
Current in the coil, I = 11 A
Magnetic field outside a toroid is zero. It is non-zero only inside the core of a toroid.
Magnetic field inside the core of a toroid is given by the relation,
B = . where = Permeability of free space = 4 T m
L = length of the toroid = 2 ) = (0.25 + 0.26)= 1.6022
B = = 3.0 T
Magnetic field in the empty space surrounded by the toroid is zero.

4.16 Radius of the circular coil = R
Number of turns on the coil = N
Current in the coil= I
Magnetic field at a point on its axis at a distance x is given as:
B =
where = Permeability of free space = 4 T m
If the magnetic field at the centre of the coil is considered, then x = 0, then
B = =
This is the familiar result for magnetic field at the centre of the coil.
Radius of two parallel co-axial circular coils = R
Number of turns on each coil = N
Current in both the coils = I
Distance between both the coils = R
Let us consider point Q at a distance d from the centre.
Then one coil is at a distance of + d from point Q
Magnetic field at po
