- A uniform magnetic field of \( 2 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{T} \) acts along positive Y-direction. A rectangular loop of sides 20 cm and 10 cm with current of 5 A is in the Y-Z plane. The current is in anticlockwise sense with reference to the negative X-axis. Magnitude and direction of the torque is:
- A region in the form of an equilateral triangle (in x-y plane) of height L has a uniform magnetic field 𝐵⃗ pointing in the +z-direction. A conducting loop PQR, in the form of an equilateral triangle of the same height 𝐿, is placed in the x-y plane with its vertex P at x = 0 in the orientation shown in the figure. At 𝑡 = 0, the loop starts entering the region of the magnetic field with a uniform velocity 𝑣 along the +x-direction. The plane of the loop and its orientation remain unchanged throughout its motion.
Which of the following graph best depicts the variation of the induced emf (E) in the loop as a function of the distance (𝑥) starting from 𝑥 = 0? - The number of turns of the coil of a moving coil galvanometer is increased in order to increase current sensitivity by $50 \%$ The percentage change in voltage sensitivity of the galvanometer will be:
