Answer: vertically downwards.

Explanation:


2. Which among of these are the main characteristics of fuse element ?

low melting point

High conductivity

do not bum due to oxidation

All of the above

Answer: All of the above

Explanation:

Fuse wire must have all the characteristic to prevent from a possible damage.


3. A soft iron bar is introduced inside the current carrying solenoid. The magnetic field inside the solenoid ?

will become zero

will increase

will remains same

will decrease

Answer: will increase

Explanation:

Soft iron inside the current carrying solenoid act as an electromagnet.


4. Relative strength of magnetic field at a point in the space surrounding the magnet is shown by the ?

thickness of magnet

resistance offered by the surroundings

degree of closeness of the field.

length of magnet

Answer: length of magnet

Explanation:

The force acting on the pole of another magnet by the crowded magnetic field lines is greater.


5. The strength of magnetic field inside a long current carrying straight solenoid is ?

Found to increase from one end to the other

Same at all points

More at the ends than at the center

Minimum in the middle

Answer: Same at all points

Explanation:

The strength of magnetic field lines inside a long current carrying straight solenoid is same at all points because the magnetic field lines are straight, equally-spaced and parallel to the axis of solenoid and hence uniform magnetic field exist inside the solenoid.


6. In the magnetic field the force acting on the current carrying conductor will be maximum ?

If conductor subtends an angle of 45 degree with the field

If conductor is parallel to the field

If conductor subtends an angle of 60 degree with the field

If conductor is perpendicular to the field

Answer: If conductor is parallel to the field

Explanation:


7. The best material to make permanent magnets is ?

copper

alnico

soft iron

aluminium

Answer: alnico

Explanation:


8. If the current values periodically from zero to a maximum value, back to zero and then reverses its direction, the current is ?

pulsating

direct

alternative

none of the above

Answer: alternative

Explanation:

The alternating current reverse its direction periodically.


9. Which of the following factors affect the strength of force experience by a current carrying conduct in a uniform magnetic field ?

length of the conductor within magnetic field

magnitude of current in a conductor

magnetic field strength

All of above.

Answer: All of above.

Explanation:
