Subject: Physics Assignment -4

1. The given magnet is divided into three parts A, B and C.

A B C
Name the parts where the strength of the magnetic field is: (i) maximum (ii) minimum. How will density of magnetic field
lines differ at these parts?

2. Draw a schematic labeled diagram of a domestic circuit which has a provision of a main fuse, meter, one light bulb and a
socket.

3. Two circular coils A and B are placed close to each other. If the current in the coil A is changed, will some current be
induced in the coil B? Give reason.

4. What happens to the force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a uniform magnetic field, when placed?

(i) Parallel to magnetic field? (ii) Perpendicular to magnetic field?

5. Mention the factors on which the direction of force experienced by a current-carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field
depend.

6. Two coils of insulated copper wire are wound over a non-conducting cylinder as shown.Coil I has larger number of turns.

(i) Write your observations when (a) Key K is closed (b)key K is opened.

(ii)When the current is passed continuously through coil I. Give reason for your observations.

(iii)Name and state the phenomenon responsible for the above observation.

(iv)Write the name of the rule that is used to determine the direction of current produced in the phenomenon.

(v) Name the two coils used in this experiment.

7.A voltmeter has a least count of 0.05 V. While doing Ohm’s law experiment, a student observed that the pointer of the
voltmeter coincides with 15th division, the observed reading is:

(a) 0.75 V (b) 0.075V (c) 7.5V (d) 75V

8. You are given four voltmeters of given ranges. The correct choice of voltmeter for doing the experiment with a battery of
4.5 V is:

(a)voltmeter with range of 0-1 V (b)voltmeter with range of 0-3 V (c)voltmeter with range of 0-4 V (d)voltmeter
with range of 0-5 V.

9. Three students X, Y and Z while performing the experiment to study the dependence of current on the potential difference
across a resistor , connects the ammeter (A),the battery (B),the key (K) and the resistor (R) in series in the giventhree
different orders.

X------B,K,R,A,B Y-----B,A,K,R,B Z--------B,R,K,A,B

Who has connected them in the correct order?

(a) X (b)Y (c)Z (d)All of them

10. One day Sureshconnected many household high power appliances having a current rating more than 6A to a multiplugof
6A rating. When he was about to switch them on, his elder sister shouted and asked him to remove the appliances from a
single socket.

(a) According to you, why she would not advice to connect multi-high power appliances on a single socket?

(b)What would have happened, if he switched them on?

(c) What was the value shown by his sister?
