Questions Related to magnetic flux density

A square loop of side 12 cm and resistance 0.60$\Omega$ is placed vertically in the east-west plane. A uniform magnetic field of 0.1 T is setup across the plane in north-east direction. The magnetic field is decreased to zero in 0.6 s at a steady rate. The magnitude of current during this time interval is

  1. $1.42 \times 10^{-3} A$

  2. $2.67 \times 10^{-3} A$

  3. $3.41\times 10^{-3} A$

  4. $4.21 \times 10^{-3} A$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Here, Area $A=l^2=(12cm)^2=1.4\times 10^{-2} m^2$
$R=0.60\omega, B _1=0.10 T,\theta=45^0$
$B _2=0,dt=0.6$ s
Initial flux,
$\phi _1=B _1Acos\theta$
      $=0.10\times1.4\times10^{-2}\times cos 45^0$
      $=9.8\times 10^{-4}$

final flux, $\phi _2$=0
Induced emf,$E=\dfrac{| d\phi |}{dt}=\dfrac{|\phi _2-\phi _1|}{dt}$

                      $E=\dfrac{|9.8\times 10^{-4}|}{0.6}s\\,\,\,\,\,=1.6\times10^{-3}V$

Current, $I=\dfrac{E}{R}=\dfrac{1.6\times\times 10^{-3}}{0.6}=2.67 \times 10^{-3}$

When the normal to a coil points in the direction of magnetic field (B), then flux is 

  1. a scalar quantity

  2. a vector quantity

  3. neither scalar nor vector

  4. uncertain


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Dot product of field and area vectors is flux . $\Phi=B.dS$, and we know dot product of two vectors is a scalar quantity.
Therefore, flux is scalar.

Current $i _0$ is being carried by an infinite wire passing through origin along the direction $\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}$. Find magnetic field due to the wire at point $(1 m, 0, 0)$.

  1. $\dfrac{(\mu _0 i)}{(2 \pi)} T$

  2. $\dfrac{(\mu _0 i)}{(\sqrt{2} \pi)} T$

  3. $\dfrac{(\mu _0 i)}{(4 \pi)} T$

  4. $\dfrac{(\sqrt{3} \mu _0 i)}{(2 \sqrt{2} \pi)} T$


Correct Option: D

A charge q is placed at the centre of a cylinder of radius R and length 2R. Then electric flux through the curved surface of the cylinder is 

  1. $\cfrac { q }{ 2 { \epsilon } _{ 0 } } $

  2. $\cfrac { q }{ 4 { \epsilon } _{ 0 } } $

  3. $\cfrac { q }{ \sqrt { 2 } { \epsilon } _{ 0 } } $

  4. $\cfrac { q }{ 2\sqrt { 2 } { \epsilon } _{ 0 } } $


Correct Option: C

A Point source generates 10 J of light energy in 2 s. The luminous flux of source is: 

  1. 5 lumen

  2. 10 lumen

  3. 50 lumen

  4. none of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The luminous flux of source is the rate at which light energy flows from the source:

luminous flux =10 J/ 2 s= 5 lumen.
so the correct option is A.
