1. A conductor of length L has carrying electric current I passing through it, when it is placed parallel to
strong magnetic field. The force experienced by the conductor will be
A. BIL.
B. BL2I.
C. BI2L.
D. zero.
Hints
The force can be found with the given expression F = I × L ×
B × sinθ and θ is the angle between I and B. When
thatelectric current carrying conductor is placed parallel to
the magnetic field, then the angle between electric
current and magnetic field is zero. So, sinθ = sin0° = 0.
Hence, the force experienced by the conductor is zero.
2. The force between two long parallel conductors is inversely proportional to
A. radius of conductors.
B. current in one conductor.
C. product of electric current in two conductors.
D. distance between the conductors.
Hints
If the electric current is flowing through the two different
conductors with the distance of ‘d’ at the same direction of
the electric current flow on that conductor, then the force
between the two conductors is directly proportional to the
product of the currents and inversely proportional to the
distance between the two conductors.
3. In the left hand rule, forefinger always represents
https://electricalstudy.sarutech.com/objectivequestionsonmagneticfieldduetocurrentcarryingconductor/index.html 1/10
A. voltage.
B. current.
C. magnetic field.
D. direction of force on the conductor.
Hints
Thumb finger represents the direction of force, Fore finger
represents the direction of magnetic field, middle finger
represents the direction of current.
4. A wire carrying electric current is bent in the form of a circular loop. Then the magnetic field around
each portion of the wire will be
A. parallel to the plane of the wire.
B. perpendicular to the circumference of the wire.
C. parallel to half portion and perpendicular for the other half.
D. none of above.
Hints
Suppose the straight wire is bent in the form of a circular
loop, electric current flows through every point on the wire
that would give rise to the magnetic field appearing as
straight lines at the center of the circular loop. By applying
the right hand rule, it is easy to check that every section of
the wire contributes to the magnetic field lines in the same
direction within the loop.
5. Cork Screw rule is used to find
A. direction of current.
B. direction of magnetic field.
C. direction of electric field.
D. direction of emf.
Hints
The direction in which the head of the cork screw rotates
that would give the direction of the magnetic field or
magnetic force of lines. The shape of this magnetic field is
circular and the direction of magnetic field is clock‑wise.
6. Two long parallel conductors carry 100 A. If the conductors are separated by 20 mm, the force per
meter of length of each conductor will be
A. 100 N.
B. 10 N.
C. 1 N.
D. 0.01 N.
Hints
Given data: Current I1 and I2 = 100 Amps; Distance = 20
mm = 20 × 10‑3 m; Force = ?
We know that the force is found by the following
expression.
7. The field at any point on the axis of a electric currentcarrying coil will be
A. parallel to axis.
B. perpendicular to the axis.
C. at angle of 45° with the axis.
D. zero.
Hints
A continuous electric current in a electric current carrying
coil is divided into multiple electric current elements.
Using the superposition principle and the Biot‑Savart’s
Law, each discrete element generates its own magnetic
field and when it is integrated with each field that produces
a resultant field and it is aligned parallel to the axis of the
coil.
8. Two straight parallel conductors carry equal currents in opposite direction. The force between them is
A. repulsive.
B. attractive.
C. zero.
D. none of above.
Hints
Hints: When two electric current carrying conductors are
placed parallelly, there will be a force acting between them.
The force is a ractive if direction of currents in the
conductor is same and it is repulsive if the direction of the
currents is opposite. This can easily be explained by Right
hand rule.
9. While comparing magnetic field and electric circuits, the point of dissimilarity exists while considering
A. mmf and emf.
B. reluctance and resistance.
C. flux and electric current flow.
D. permeance and conductance.
Hints
Flow of electric current in an electric circuit involves
continuous expenditure of energy but energy is needed in
a magnetic circuit only creating the flux initially but not
for maintaining it.
10. A wire 2.5 m long is bent into a square. A electric current of 100 A flowing through the wire will
produce a magnetizing force at the center of the square, equal to
A. 72 AT / m.
B. 144 AT / m.
C. 196 AT / m.
D. 222 AT / m.
Hints
Hints: Given data: Wire length ‘L’ = 2.5 m; Current ‘I’ =
100 A; Magnetizing force ‘H’ = ?. In square, length of each
side; 2a = L / 4 ⇒ a = 2.5 / 8 = 0.3125
11. Magnetism of a magnet can be destroyed by
A. heating.
B. hammering.
C. by inductive action of another magnet.
D. by all above methods.
Hints
The above all methods could destroy the strength of the
magnet.
12. The change of cross sectional area of conductor in magnetic field will affect
A. reluctance of conductor.
B. resistance of conductor.
C. (A) and (B) both in the same way.
D. none of above.
Hints
We know that the cross sectional area is inversely
proportional to the resistance of the conductor. In magnetic
circuits, reluctance is analogues to the resistance. Hence,
the resistance and reluctance would affect in the same way.
13. Substance having permeability less than the permeability of free space, are known as
A. diamagnetic.
B. bipolar.
C. paramagnetic.
D. ferromagnetic.
Hints
Diamagnetic material creates a magnetic field in opposition
to an externally applied magnetic field and it is not a
permanent magnet. Hence, its magnetic permeability is less
than the permeability of free space.
14. A point pole has a strength of 4π × 104 weber. The force in newtons on a point pole of 4π × 1.5 × 10
4
weber placed at a distance of 10 cm from it will be
A. 20 N.
B. 15 N.
C. 7.5 N.
D. 3.75 N.
Hints
Given data: Pole strength m1 = 4π × 10‑7 Weber; m2 = 4π ×
1.5 × 10‑4; r = 10 cm.
We know that the force is found by the below expression,
15. Susceptibility is positive for
A. non magnetic substances.
B. diamagnetic substances.
C. ferromagnetic substances.
D. none of above.
Hints
Magnetic susceptibility is the degree of magnetization of a
material response to an applied magnetic field. If magnetic
susceptibility is positive then the material can be
paramagnetic, ferromagnetic or anti ferromagnetic.
Alternatively, if the magnetic susceptibility is negative,
then the material is diamagnetic.
16. BiotSavart's law states the relation between magnetic intensity and
A. filament electric current only.
B. surface electric current only.
C. volume electric current only.
D. (A), (B), and (C) are all correct.
Hints
Biot‑Savartʹs law states that the differential magnetic
field intensity dH produced at a point P by the
differential electric current element Idl. This is the only one
law is available to relate the magnetic intensity and the
different type of electric current distribution. The given
equations show the different relations between the magnetic
intensity and the currents.
17. The bar magnet has
A. the dipole moment.
B. monopole moment.
C. (A) and (B) both.
D. none of above.
Hints
Under construction
18. The magnetisation and applied field in ferromagnetic materials are related
A. sinusoidally.
B. linearly.
C. non linearly.
D. parabolically.
Hints
When a ferromagnetic material is magnetized in one
direction, it will not come back to zero magnetization even
the magnetizing field is removed. That is why the material
follows a non‑linear magnetization curve when the
magnetization starts from zero field value.
19. Temporary magnets are used in
A. loud speakers.
B. generators.
C. motors.
D. all of above.
Hints
Temporary magnets are nothing but the electromagnets.
Those magnets are used in lots of electrical appliance such
as alternator, synchronous motors, etc. Because, for a large
system, we could not create a permanent magnet and even
if we create the permanent magnet, the life of that magnet is
very less. That is why we usually use the electromagnet for
that application.
20. A degaussing is the process of
A. removing gases from materials.
B. removal of magnetic impurities.
C. demagnetising metallic parts.
D. remagnetising metallic parts.
Hints
Degaussing is the process of de‑magnetizing or eliminating
an unwanted magnetic field. Due to magnetic hysteresis, it
is generally not possible to reduce a magnetic
field completely to zero. But degaussing typically induces a
very small known field to eliminate the unwanted magnetic
field.
