Two identical metallic square loops are placed next to each other with their sides parallel on a smooth horizontal table. Loop is fixed and a current which increases as a function of time is passed through it. Then loop

Important Questions on Electromagnetic Induction and Alternating Current


A current is induced in the coil because is :

Two bar magnets A and B, and a non-magnetic bar , all of same mass and dimensions, are dropped in an identical manner one by one through the center of a copper loop held horizontally (as shown in the figure). The times taken by the bars , and to reach the ground are , and , respectively. Which of the following relations is correct?

Current from A to B in the straight wire is decreasing. The direction of induced current in circular loop will be :



A bar magnet is passing through a conducting loop of radius with velocity The radius of the bar magnet is such that it just passes through the loop. The induced e.m.f. in the loop can be represented by the approximate curve:


A square conducting loop is placed near an infinitely long current-carrying wire with one edge parallel to the wire as shown in the figure. If the current in the straight wire is suddenly halved, which of the following statements will be true?
"The loop will "

A copper ring having a cut such that it does not form a complete loop is held horizontally and a bar magnet is dropped through the ring with its length along the axis of the ring. Then acceleration of the falling magnet is


The diagram below shows two circular loops of wire and centered on and perpendicular to the -axis, and oriented with their planes parallel to each other. The -axis passes vertically through loop (dashed line). There is a current in loop as shown. Possible actions which we might perform on loop are
(i) Move to the right along -axis closer to .
(ii) Move to the left along -axis away from .
(iii) As viewed from above, rotate clockwise about -axis.
(iv) As viewed from above, rotate anticlockwise about -axis Which of these actions will induce a current in only in the direction shown.


Which of the following schematic plot(s) is(are) correct ? (Ignore gravity)

Lenz's law is in accordance with the law of:



Ajay and his friends went for a walk. There they saw a metallic chain attached to a truck touching the ground. It was also written on the truck, “beware highly inflammable". Ajay explained to his friends that during motion of truck, magnetic lines of the earth are cut by its axle and due to this some e.m.f. will be induced across its ends. This induced charge is discharging to the earth through this metallic chain and explosive materials are safe.
Answer the following questions on the basis of the above paragraph : Name and state the law which gives direction of induced current.
