1. The condition for the praenomen of electromagnetic induction is that there must be a relative motion between ?

the coil of wire and magnet

the coil of wire and galvanometer

the magnet and galvanometer

the galvanometer and magnet

Answer: the coil of wire and magnet

Explanation:

The relative motion between the magnet and coil of wire causes change in magnetic field lines linked with the coil to produces induced current if the circuit is closed.


2. If the key in the given arrangement is taken out (the circuit is made open) and magnetic field lines are drawn over the horizontal plane ABCD, the lines are ?

concentric circles near the point O but of elliptical shapes as we go away from it

straight lines parallel to each other

concentric circles

elliptical in shape

Answer: concentric circles

Explanation:

Magnetic field lines around a straight current carrying conductor are in the form of concentric circle.


3. A magnet is moved towards a coil (i) quickly (ii) slowly. The induced potential difference ?

same in both

more in (i) than in (ii) case

more in (ii) than in (i) case

can’t say

Answer: more in (i) than in (ii) case

Explanation:

When magnet is moved quickly, more will be the changing magnetic field strength and hence larger is the induced potential difference.


4. The nature of magnetic field line passing through the centre of current carrying circular loop is ?

parabolic

straight line

ellipse

circular

Answer: straight line

Explanation:

magnetic field line at the centre of current carrying loop appears as a straight line.


5. The magnetic field lines always begin from ?

start from the middle and end at S-pole.

start from the middle and end at N-pole.

N-pole and end on S-pole.

S-pole and end on N-pole.

Answer: N-pole and end on S-pole.

Explanation:


6. The north pole of a long bar magnet was pushed slowly into a short solenoid connected to a galvanometer. the magnet was held stationary for a few seconds with the north pole in the middle of the solenoid and then withdrawn rapidly. the maximum deflection of the galvanometer was observed when the magnet was ?

At rest inside the solenoid

Moving out of the solenoid

Moving into solenoid

Moving towards the solenoid

Answer: Moving out of the solenoid

Explanation:

Because the relative change in the value of magnetic field is maximum in this condition.


7. Choose the correct statement ?

The electric generator works on the principle that when a straight conductor is moved in a magnetic field, then current is induced in the conductor.

The alternating current AC produced in India has a frequency of 50 Hertz.

The electric generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

All the above.

Answer: The electric generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Explanation:

are all the statements are correct. Hence, your answer will be option [D].


8. In India the potential difference between live wire and neutral wire is ?

280 V

220 V

250 V

240 V

Answer: 220 V

Explanation:


9. At the time of short circuit the current in the circuit. ?

increases heavily

very continuously.

reduces substantially

does not change

Answer: increases heavily

Explanation:


10. A plotting compass is placed near the south pole of a bar magnet. the pointer of plotting compass will ?

Point at right angles to the south pole

Point towards the south pole

Point parallel to the south pole

Point away from the south pole

Answer: Point towards the south pole

Explanation:

If a plotting compass is placed near the south pole of a bar magnet, this pole attracts the north pole of the compass needle. This causes the tip of the compass to point towards the south pole.
