Top Questions on Electromagnetism
- Assertion (A): A charged particle is moving with velocity \( v \) in \( x \)-\( y \) plane, making an angle \( \theta \) (\( 0<\theta<90^\circ \)) with \( x \)-axis. If a uniform magnetic field is applied in the region, along \( y \)-axis, the particle will move in a helical path with its axis parallel to \( x \)-axis.
Reason (R): The direction of the magnetic force acting on a charged particle moving in a magnetic field is along the velocity of the particle.- CBSE CLASS XII - 2025

Draw the pattern of the magnetic field lines for the two parallel straight conductors carrying current of same magnitude 'I' in opposite directions as shown. Show the direction of magnetic field at a point O which is equidistant from the two conductors. (Consider that the conductors are inserted normal to the plane of a rectangular cardboard.)

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Choke coil is simply a coil having a large inductance but a small resistance. Choke coils are used with fluorescent mercury-tube fittings. If household electric power is directly connected to a mercury tube, the tube will be damaged.
Reason (R): By using the choke coil, the voltage across the tube is reduced by a factor \( \frac{R}{\sqrt{R^2 + \omega^2 L^2}} \), where \( \omega \) is the frequency of the supply across resistor \( R \) and inductor \( L \). If the choke coil were not used, the voltage across the resistor would be the same as the applied voltage.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
