When 100 volts d.c. is applied across solenoid a current of 1.0 amp flows in it. When 100 volts a.c. is applied across the same coil, the current drops to 0.5 amp. If the frequency of the a.c. source is 50 Hz the impedance and inductance of the solenoid are

  1. 200 ohm and 0.55 Henry

  2. 100 ohm and 0.86 Henry

  3. 200 ohm and 1.0 Henry

A Correct answer
Explanation

From DC, R = V/I = 100/1 = 100 ohm. From AC, Z = V/I = 100/0.5 = 200 ohm. Using Z^2 = R^2 + (2*pi*f*L)^2, we find 200^2 = 100^2 + (2*pi*50*L)^2, which solves to L approximately 0.55 H.

C Correct answer
Explanation

Let semicircular ring of radius $R$ as shown in figure 

An elementary length $dl$ cut for finding magnetic field,
So, 
$dl = Rd\theta $
So, elementary current along $dl$ is $di = \frac{i}{{\pi R}} \times Rd\theta  = \frac{{id\theta }}{\pi }$.
Now, you can see that elementary part of length is perpendicular upon $dB$.
so,
$dB = \frac{{{\mu _0}di}}{{2\pi R}}$

$ = \frac{{{\mu _0}di}}{{2{\pi ^2}R}}$


Now, magnetic filed along axis $B = \int\limits _0^\pi  {db.\sin \theta d\theta }  = 2dB$
Now, put $dB$ in here,
So, $B = \frac{{{\mu _o}i}}{{{\pi ^2}R}}$
Hence, 
Option $C$ is the correct answer.

The self inductance of a coil having $500$ turns is $50$ mH. The magnetic flux through the cross-sectional area of the coil while current through it is $8$mA is found to be?

  1. $4\times 10^{-4} Wb$

  2. $0.04$ Wb

  3. $4\mu$ Wb

  4. $40$m Wb

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
Given that,

Number of turns $N =500$

Self inductance $L=50\times10^{-3}\ H$

Current $I=8\times10^{-3}\ A$

The magnetic flux through an inductor is the self inductance of coil times the current through it.

The flux is 
$\phi=LI$

$\phi=50\times10^{-3}\times8\times10^{-3}$

$\phi=4\times10^{-4}\ Wb$

So, the magnetic flux is $4\times10^{-4}\ Wb$

Hence, A is correct option.

What is the mutual inductance of coil and solenoid if a solenoid of length $0.50\ m$ and with $5000$ turns of wire has a radius $4\ cm$ and a coil of $700$ turns is wound on the middle part of the solenoid?

  1. $44.17\ mH$

  2. $48.98\ mH$

  3. $34.34\ mH$

  4. $36.73\ mH$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Mutual inductance M = (mu_0 * N1 * N2 * A) / l. With N1 = 5000, N2 = 700, A = pi * (0.04)^2, l = 0.5, M = (4*pi*10^-7 * 5000 * 700 * pi * 0.0016) / 0.5 = 0.04417 H = 44.17 mH.
