All questions with answers
  1. The force on a charge q moving with velocity v perpendicular to a magnetic field B is:

    • 1 q v B
    • 2 q v / B
    • 3 Zero
    • 4 q B / v
    Show answer

    Correct answer: q v B

    F = q v B sin 90 = q v B.

  2. A charged particle moving along the direction of a magnetic field experiences:

    • 1 Maximum force
    • 2 A force opposite to motion
    • 3 A force along the field
    • 4 No force
    Show answer

    Correct answer: No force

    sin 0 = 0, so there is no force.

  3. The magnetic field inside a solenoid depends on:

    • 1 Only its length
    • 2 Only its radius
    • 3 Its colour
    • 4 Turns per unit length and current
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Turns per unit length and current

    B = μ₀ n I.

  4. Ampere's law relates the line integral of B around a closed loop to the:

    • 1 Flux
    • 2 Current enclosed
    • 3 Mass
    • 4 Charge enclosed
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Current enclosed

    The integral equals μ₀ times the enclosed current.

  5. A galvanometer is converted into an ammeter by connecting a:

    • 1 Capacitor in parallel
    • 2 Battery in series
    • 3 Large resistance in series
    • 4 Small resistance in parallel
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Small resistance in parallel

    A low resistance shunt in parallel carries most of the current.

  6. The direction of force on a current carrying conductor in a field is given by:

    • 1 Fleming's left hand rule
    • 2 Lenz's law
    • 3 Gauss's law
    • 4 Fleming's right hand rule
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Fleming's left hand rule

    The left hand rule is for motors.

  7. The SI unit of magnetic flux density is the:

    • 1 Weber
    • 2 Tesla
    • 3 Gauss only
    • 4 Henry
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Tesla

    One tesla is one weber per square metre.

  8. The torque on a rectangular coil in a magnetic field is maximum when the plane of the coil is:

    • 1 Parallel to the field
    • 2 Never
    • 3 At 45 degrees only
    • 4 Perpendicular to the field
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Parallel to the field

    The force arms are longest then.
