$A$ loop of irregular shape made of flexible conducting wire carrying a clockwise current is placed in a uniform inward magnetic field,such that its plane is perpendicular to the field. Then the loop:

  • A
    Experiences a magnetic force.
  • B
    Develops an induced current for a short time.
  • C
    Changes to a circular shape.
  • D
    All of these.

$[3]$ The particle lost charge by ionising the air.

Answer the following questions:
$(a)$ $A$ magnetic field that varies in magnitude from point to point but has a constant direction (east to west) is set up in a chamber. $A$ charged particle enters the chamber and travels undeflected along a straight path with constant speed. What can you say about the initial velocity of the particle?
$(b)$ $A$ charged particle enters an environment of a strong and non-uniform magnetic field varying from point to point both in magnitude and direction,and comes out of it following a complicated trajectory. Would its final speed equal the initial speed if it suffered no collisions with the environment?
$(c)$ An electron travelling west to east enters a chamber having a uniform electrostatic field in north to south direction. Specify the direction in which a uniform magnetic field should be set up to prevent the electron from deflecting from its straight line path.

Two parallel long wires carry currents $i_1$ and $i_2$ with $i_1 > i_2$. When the currents are in the same direction,the magnetic field midway between the wires is $10 \, \mu T$. When the direction of $i_2$ is reversed,it becomes $40 \, \mu T$. The ratio $i_1/i_2$ is

$A$ metal sample carrying a current along $X-$ axis with density $J_x$ is subjected to a magnetic field $B_z$ (along $z-$ axis). The electric field $E_y$ developed along $Y-$ axis is directly proportional to $J_x$ as well as $B_z$. The constant of proportionality has $SI$ unit:
