A uniform magnetic field of 1.5 T exists in a cylindrical region of radius 10.0 cm, its direction being parallel to the axis along east to west. A current-carrying wire in north-south direction passes through this region. The wire intersects the axis and experiences a force of 1.2 N downward. If the wire is lowered from the axis by a distance of 6 cm, the magnitude and direction of force is

Three distinct current carrying wires intersect a finite rectangular plane ABCD. The current in the left wire and the loop is I1. The direction of current in left-most wire and right-most loop is downwards as shown in the figure. The current I2 through the middle wire is adjusted so that the path integral of the total magnetic field along the perimeter of the rectangle is zero, that is, ABCDAB·dl=0. Then the current I2 is

The figure shows a long coaxial cable in which a current I flows down through the inner cylinder of radius a and the same current flows back up through the outer cylinder of radius 2a. The cylinders are insulated from each other and the current is uniformly distributed over the area of the cross-section in each cylinder. The strength of the magnetic field at a distance 3a2 from the axis of the cable is

A thin rectangular magnet, suspended freely, has a period of oscillation equal to T. Now, it is broken into two equal halves (each having half of the original length) and one piece is made to oscillate freely in the same field. If it's period of oscillation is T', then the ratio TT' is

A small coil C with N=200 turns is mounted on one end of a balance beam and introduced between the poles of an elctromagnet as shown in the figure. The cross sectional area of coil is A=1.0 cm2, length of arm OA of the balance beam is l=30 cm. When there is no current in the coil the balance is in equilibrium. On passing a current I=22 mA through the coil the equilibrium is restored by putting the additional counter weight of mass m = 60 mg on the balance pan. Find the magnetic induction at the spot where coil is located.
