A uniformly charged rod with total charge '', length is initially at rest. In space uniform magnetic field '' is present everywhere. Now an Impulse is imparted at centre of rod perpendicular to both, the magnetic field and the length of rod as shown in figure. So that it starts moving with uniform speed . The mass distribution of rod is uniform. Total mass of rod is . Ignore gravitational interactions.


Important Questions on Magnetic Fields due to Electric Current

Two magnetic dipoles and are placed at a separation , with their axes perpendicular to each other. The dipole moment of is twice that of . A particle of charge is passing through their mid-point , at angle with the horizontal line, as shown in figure. What would be the magnitude of force on the particle at that instant? ( is much larger than the dimension of the dipole)


An electron enters a magnetic field of with a velocity of The acceleration produced is
( of electron )


Consider a negatively charged particle moving with a velocity in a magnetic field applied perpendicular to the plane of the paper (into the paper). The particle follows the path or or or (shown in the figure)


A particle with charge moves with a velocity in a direction perpendicular to the directions of uniform electric and magnetic fields, and respectively, which are mutually perpendicular to each other. Which one of the following gives the condition for which the particle moves undeflected in its original trajectory?


During its motion inside the chamber








An electric current enters and leaves a uniform circular wire of radius through diametrically opposite points. A particle carrying a charge moves along the axis of the circular wire with speed . What is the magnetic force experienced by the particle when it passes through the centre of the circle?




An electric field of appropriate magnitude is also applied so that the electron travels un-deviated without any change in its speed through the chamber. We are ignoring gravity. Then, the direction of the electric field is,
