Take MCQ Physics Test

1.
Can one have an inductance without a resistance ? How about a resistance with an inductance?
2.
A circular brass loop of radius a and resistance R is placed with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field, which varies with time as \(B={ B }_{ 0 }sin\omega t.\) Obtain the expression for the induced current in the loop.
3.
An artificial satellite with a metal surface is orbiting the earth around the poles. Will there be any induced current due to earth's magnetic field ?
4.
What is the basic cause of induced e.m.f.?
5.
What causes sparking in the switches when light is put off ?
6.
Why are oscillations of a copper sheet in a magnetic field highly damped ?
7.
The induced e.m.f. is sometimes called back e.m.f. Why ?
8.
A vertical metallic pole falls down through the plane of magnetic meridian. Will any e.m.f. be induced between its ends ?
9.
The form factor of an a.c. generated is given by
\(\frac { { I }_{ av } }{ { I }_{ 0 } } \)
\(\frac { { I }_{ 0 } }{ { I }_{ av } } \)
\(\frac { { I }_{ av } }{ { I }_{ v } } \)
\(\frac { { I }_{ v } }{ { I }_{ av } } \)
10.
The frequency of a.c. generated depends on
speed of rotation of coil
amplitude of a.c
size of coil
all the above
11.
Phase difference between voltage across L and C in series is
\({ 0 }^{ \circ }\)
\({9 0 }^{ \circ }\)
\({180 }^{ \circ }\)
\({ 360 }^{ \circ }\)
12.
Which one is not an application of eddy currents?
Magnetic brakes
speedometers
Induction furnace
Transformers
13.
In the relation \(\phi \) = BA cos \(\theta \), \(\theta \) is angle........
which normal to surface area makes with the direction of magnetic field
which magnetic field makes with the surface
which is never constant
none of the above
14.
The current, in the LCR circuit shown in the figure, is observed to lead the voltage in phase. Without making any other change in the circuit, a capacitor, of capacitance Co' is (appropriately) joined to the capacitor Co. This results in making the current, in the 'modified' circuit, flow in phase with the applied voltage. Draw a diagram of the 'modified' circuit and obtain an expression for Co in terms of \(\omega \) L and C

15.
Define the term self-inductance of a solenoid. Obtain the expression for the magnetic energy stored in an inductor of self-inductance L to build up a current I through it.
1.
No, as every material has some resistance. Yes, we can coil a wire to have resistance with inductance.
2.
Induced current,
\(I=\frac { induced \ e.m.f/ }{ resistance } =\frac { e }{ R } \\ =\frac { d\Phi /dt }{ R } =\frac { -1 }{ R } \frac { d }{ dt } (BA \ cos{ 0 }^{ \circ })\\ I=-\frac { A }{ R } \frac { d }{ dt } ({ B }_{ 0 }sin\omega t)=-\frac { { AB }_{ 0 } }{ R } cos\omega t(\omega )\\ =-\frac { { A\omega B }_{ 0 } }{ R } cos\omega t\)
3.
Yes, induced current will be there. This is because, at poles, earth's magnetic field is totally vertical. The orbiting satellite will intercept this field and emf will be induced.
4.
Change in magnetic flux linked with the circuit.
5.
Large induced e.m.f. at break causes the sparking.
6.
This is because of eddy currents developed in copper sheet.
7.
This is because induced e.m.f. opposes the current due to the actual source e.m.f.
8.
No, because the pole intercepts neither H nor V.
9.
(d)
\(\frac { { I }_{ v } }{ { I }_{ av } } \)
10.
(a)
speed of rotation of coil
11.
(c)
\({180 }^{ \circ }\)
12.
(d)
Transformers
13.
(a)
which normal to surface area makes with the direction of magnetic field
14.
The current leads the voltage in phaseHence, Xc > XL
For resonance, we must have New value of Xc = XL
We, therefore, need to decrease Xc \((\frac { 1 }{ \omega c } )\) This
requires an increase in the value of C. Hence, capacitor co should be connected in parallel across C the diagram of the modified circuit is as shown.

For resonance, we then have
\(\frac { 1 }{ \omega (c+co) } =\omega L\)
\({ C }_{ o }=[\frac { 1 }{ { \omega }^{ 2 }L } -C\)
15.
Self-inductance of the solenoid is the flux associated with the solenoid when the unit amount of a current passes through it.
Consider a solenoid of self-inductance L, length e, area of cross-section A.
Let alternating voltage
ε = ε0 sin ωt applied across it, and back emf induced.
∴ e = -L \(\frac { dI }{ dt } \)
⇒ dL = \(\frac { e }{ L } \) dt
Small amount of work done i.e
dW = eI dt
Total work done
W = \(\int { el\ dt } \)
= \(\int _{ 0 }^{ 1 }{ LI\ dI\ =\frac { 1 }{ 2 } } \)
This work done will be stored in the form of magnetic energy in inductor
U = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) LI2
