  1. the wire oscillates

  2. the wire continues making contact

  3. the wire breaks contact just when the current is passed

  4. the mercury will expand by heating due to passage of current

  3. B

  4. 2 B

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$\displaystyle B = \mu _0 N _0  i;   $

$B _1 = (\mu _0) \left ( \dfrac{N _0}{2} \right ) (2 i) $

$= \mu _0 N _0 i = B$


$\Rightarrow B _1 = B$

  1. $6.67 \times10^{-1} T$

  2. $6.67 \times10^{-4} T$

  3. $6.67 \times10^{4} T$

  4. $2.67 \times10^{-4} T$

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Given $d = 14 cm=0.14 m$    

           $l = 60cm = 0.6 m$

By the question, $N \times \pi d = 28 m.$

$N \times \pi \times 0.14 = 28$

$\displaystyle \therefore N = \dfrac{28}{0.14 \times \pi} = 63.66 turns$

$\displaystyle B = \mu _o   nI  =\mu _o  \dfrac{N}{l} I = 12.57 \times 10^{-7} \times \dfrac{63.66}{0.6} \times 5$

$=6.67 \times10^{-4} T$
