  1. $1.2 \times 10 ^ { - 6 } N$
  2. $2 .4\times 10 ^ { - 6 } N$
  3. $2.16 \times 10 ^ { - 3 } \mathrm { N }$

A Correct answer
Explanation

The total energy falling on the surface is $U = \left( {18W/c{m^2}} \right) \times \left( {20c{m^2}} \right) \times \left( {30 \times 60} \right) = 6.48 \times {10^5}J$

therefore$,$ the total momentum delivered is 
$P = \dfrac{U}{c} = \dfrac{{\left( {6.48 \times {{10}^5}J} \right)}}{{\left( {3 \times {{10}^8}\,m/s} \right)}} = 2.16 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,kgm/s$
The average force exerted on the surface is 
$F = \dfrac{p}{t} =  = \dfrac{{2.16 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}}{{0.18 \times {{10}^4}}} = 1.2 \times {10^{ - 6}}N$
Hence,
option $(A)$ is correct answer.

A Correct answer
Explanation

Electric flux is the dot product of the electric field vector and the area vector. Phi = (10i + 5j) * 10^4 * (3i + 3j) * 10^-2 = (30 + 15) * 10^2 = 45 * 10^2 = 4.5 * 10^3 Nm^2/C.

C Correct answer
Explanation

The magnetic field inside a long solenoid is given by B = mu0 * n * I, where n is the number of turns per unit length. Thus, B is directly proportional to the current I.

Multiple choice physics magnetic fields and electromagnetism magnetic flux density magnetic flux electromagnetic induction

A closely wound flat circular coil of 25 turns of wire has diameter of =f 10 cm and carries a current of 4 amperes. determine the magnetic flux density at the centre of the coil:-

  1. $ 1.679 \times 10^{-5} T $
  2. $ 2.028 \times 10^{-4} T $
  3. $ 1.257 \times 10^{-3} T $
  4. $ 1.512 \times 10^{-6} T $

C Correct answer
Explanation

For a flat circular coil, B at center = μ₀NI/(2r). Given: N = 25 turns, I = 4 A, r = 5 cm = 0.05 m. B = (4π × 10⁻⁷ × 25 × 4)/(2 × 0.05) = 4π × 10⁻⁷ × 100/0.1 = 4π × 10⁻⁴ ≈ 1.257 × 10⁻³ T. This matches option C. The formula differs from solenoid (which uses turns per length).

Magnetic field intensity at the centre of coil of 50 turns, radius 0.5 m and carrying a current of 2 A is 

  1. $0.5 \times 10^{-5}T$

C Correct answer
Explanation

B = (mu0 * N * I) / (2 * R) = (4 * pi * 10^-7 * 50 * 2) / (2 * 0.5) = (4 * pi * 10^-7 * 100) / 1 = 4 * pi * 10^-5 = 1.256 * 10^-4 T.
