One of the two small circular coils (neither having any self-inductance) is suspended with a $V$-shaped copper wire,with its plane horizontal. The other coil is placed just below the first one with its plane horizontal. Both coils are connected in series with a $dc$ supply. The coils are found to attract each other with a force. Which one of the following statements is incorrect?

  • A
    Both the coils carry currents in the same direction.
  • B
    Coils will attract each other,even if the supply is an $ac$ source.
  • C
    Force is proportional to $d^{-1}$.
  • D
    Force is proportional to $d^{-2}$.

An electron is projected with velocity $v_0$ in a uniform electric field $E$ perpendicular to the field. Again,it is projected with velocity $v_0$ perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field $B$. If $r_1$ is the initial radius of curvature just after entering the electric field and $r_2$ is the initial radius of curvature just after entering the magnetic field,then the ratio $r_1:r_2$ is equal to:
