Define self-inductance of a coil. Show that magnetic energy required to build up the current I in a coil of self-inductance L is given by
A metallic rod of ‘L’ length is rotated with angular frequency of ‘ ’ with one end hinged at the centre and the other end at the circumference of a circular metallic ring of radius L, about an axis passing through the centre and perpendicular to the plane of the ring. A constant and uniform magnetic field B parallel to the axis is present everywhere. Deduce the expression for the emf between the centre and the metallic ring.

A rectangular loop of wire of size 4 cm × 10 cm carries a steady current of 2A. A straight long wire carrying 5A current is kept near the loop as shown.
If the loop and the wire are coplanar, find
(i) the torque acting on the loop and
(ii) the magnitude and direction of the force on the loop due to the current carrying wire.
Using Kirchhoff’s rules determine the value of unknown resistance R in the circuit so that no current flows through 4 resistance. Also find the potential difference between A and D.
