Assertion:  Acceleration of charged particle in non-uniform electric field does not depend on velocity of charged particle.

Reason: Charge is an invariant quantity. That is amount of charge on particle does not depend on frame of reference.

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If assertion is true but reason is false.

  • If both assertion and reason are false.

What is the magnetic field on the axis of a coil of radius r carrying current I at a distance R from the origin?

  • μ0 I r22 r2 + R232

  • μ0 IR22 r2 + R232

  • μ0I2 r + R

  • μ0 IR2 r2 + R212


A.

μ0 I r22 r2 + R232

Consider a circular coil of radius r, carrying a current I. Consider a point P, which is at a distance X from the centre of the coil. We can consider that the loop is made up of a large number of short elements, generating small magnetic fields. So the total field at P will be the sum of the contributions from all these elements. At the centre of the coil the field will be uniform. As the location of the point increases from the centre of the coil, the field decreases.

  

 

By Biot-Savart's law, the field dB due to a small element 'dl' of the circle, centred at A is given by

         dB = μ0 I2 r2 x2 + r2 32

This can be resolved into two components, one along the axis OP, ad other PS, which is perpendicular to OP.  Ps get cancelled with PS'. So the magnetic field at a distance x away from the axis of circular coil of radius r is given by

        Bxμ0 n I2 r2x2 + r232

Assertion:  When a magnetic dipole is placed in a non uniform magnetic field, only a torque acts on the dipole. 

Reason:  Force would act on dipole if magnetic field is uniform.

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

  • If assertion is true but reason is false.

  • If both assertion and reason are false.
