(c) No relation (d) Neither attract nor repel
4. A square coil of the side 10 cm consists of 20 turns and carries a current of 12 A, the coil is
suspended vertically and normal to the plane of the coil and makes an angle of 30° with the
direction of uniform horizontal magnetic field of magnitude of 0.80 Tesla. The magnitude of
torque experienced by the coil is:
(a) 2.96 Nm (b) 3.45 Nm (c) 5 Nm (d) 0.96 Nm
5. A long straight wire of circular cross section of radius ‘a’ carries a steady current ‘I’. The
current is uniformly distributed across its cross section. The ratio of the magnitudes of
a a
magnetic field at a point distant above the surface of wire to that at a point below its

field, acting perpendicular to their paths. Which of them will move in a circular path with
higher frequency?
