Q1. When equal current is passed through two coils, equal magnetic field is produced
at their centres. If the ratio of number of turns in the coils is 8 : 15, then the ratio
of their radii will be
(1) 1 : 1 (2) 15 : 8 (3) 8 : 15 (4) 1 : 2
2. A galvanometer having a coil resistance of 60 ohms shows full scale deflection (1)
when a current of 1.0 A passes through
it. It can be converted into an ammeter to read currents upto 5.0 A by
(1) Putting in parallel a resistance of 15 ohms
(2) Putting in parallel a resistance of 240 ohms
(3) Putting in series a resistance of 15 ohms
(4) Putting in series a resistance of 240 ohms
3. Two statements are given –one labelled Assertion (A) and other labelled Reason (1)
(R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the options as given below.
(a) If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is correct explanation of
Assertion.
(b) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation
of Assertion.
(c) If Assertion is true but Reason is false.
(d) If both Assertion and Reason are false.
Assertion : Magnetic field lines are continuous and form closed loops.
Reason : Magnetic monopoles do not exist.

4. Two identical coils each of radius R and having number of turns N are lying in (2)
perpendicular planes, such that they have common centre. Find the magnetic field
at the centre of the coils, if they carry currents equal to I and √3I respectively
5. A uniform magnetic field gets modified as shown in the figure, when two (2)
specimens X and Y are placed in it.

(i) Identify the two specimens X and Y.

(ii) State the reason for modification of the field lines in X and Y.
6. State Ampere’s circuital law. Derive an expression for the magnetic intensity at (3)
a point due to a current carrying straight wire of infinite length.
7. a) Derive an expression for the force acting per unit length between two long (5)
straight parallel metallic conductors, carrying current in the same direction and
kept near each other. Why do such current carrying conductors attract each
other?
(b) Two long and parallel straight wires A and B carrying currents of 8.0 A and
5.0 A in the same direction are separated by a distance of 4.0 cm. Estimate the
force on a 10 cm section of wire A.
