A bar magnet is dropped so that it falls vertically through the coil . The graph obtained for voltage produced across the coil vs time is shown in Fig. 6.83 (b).
Why is the negative peak longer than the positive peak?

Figure 6.85 shows a bar magnet falling under gravity through an air-cored coil . Plot a graph showing variation of induced emf () with time (). What does the area enclosed by the curve depict?

A small square loop of wire of side is placed inside a large square loop of wire of side . The loops are coplanar and their centres coincide [Fig. 6.86]. Find the mutual inductance of the system.

In Fig. 6.87, a rod closing the circuit moves along a U-shaped wire at a constant speed v under the action of the force . The circuit is in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to its plane. Calculate if the rate of generation of heat is .

Figure 6.88 shows a long, rectangular, conducting loop of width , mass and resistance placed partly in a perpendicular magnetic field . With what velocity should it be pushed downwards so that it may continue to fall without any acceleration?

Figure 6.89 shows a wire of mass m and length which can slide on a pair of parallel, smooth, horizontal rails placed in a vertical magnetic field . The rails are connected by a capacitor of capacitance . The electric resistance of the rails and the wire is zero. If a constant force F acts on the wire as shown in the figure, find the acceleration of the wire.

A rectangular wire frame, as shown in Fig. 6.90(a) is placed in uniform magnetic field directed upward and normal to the plane of the paper. The part is connected to a spring. The spring is stretched and released when the wire has come to the position . Explain qualitatively how induced emf in the coil would vary with time. Neglect damping of oscillations of the spring.

Figure 6.91 shows two long coaxial solenoids, each of length ''. The outer solenoid has an area of cross-section and number of turns/length . The corresponding values for the inner solenoid are and . Write the expression for self inductance , of the two coils and their mutual inductance . Hence show that .
