Show Hint
- oscillates
- deflects towards X
- deflects towards X'
- does not deflect
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
When a magnet is moved towards a coil, it induces a current in the coil due to the change in magnetic flux, which causes the galvanometer needle to deflect. Similarly, when the magnet is moved away, the direction of the induced current changes, leading to the opposite deflection in the galvanometer. This results in oscillations as the magnet is pushed back and forth due to the alternating increase and decrease in the magnetic flux.
Thus, the galvanometer pointer oscillates.
Top Questions on Faraday's Law
Two resistors are connected in a circuit loop of area 5 m\(^2\), as shown in the figure below. The circuit loop is placed on the \( x-y \) plane. When a time-varying magnetic flux, with flux-density \( B(t) = 0.5t \) (in Tesla), is applied along the positive \( z \)-axis, the magnitude of current \( I \) (in Amperes, rounded off to two decimal places) in the loop is (answer in Amperes).
