Consider a metal ring kept (supported by a cardboard) on top of a fixed solenoid carrying a current $I$ as per the figure. The centre of the ring coincides with the axis of the solenoid. If the current in the solenoid is switched off,what will happen to the ring?
(N/A) When the current in the solenoid is switched off,the magnetic flux linked with the metal ring decreases.
According to Lenz's Law,the induced current in the ring will flow in such a direction as to oppose this decrease in magnetic flux.
This means the ring will develop a magnetic polarity that attracts it towards the solenoid.
Therefore,the ring will remain on the cardboard and will not move away.

$A$ hundred turns of insulated copper wire are wrapped around an iron cylinder of area $1 \times 10^{-3} \ m^2$ and are connected to a resistor. The total resistance in the circuit is $10 \ \Omega$. If the longitudinal magnetic induction in the iron changes from $1 \ Wb/m^2$ in one direction to $1 \ Wb/m^2$ in the opposite direction,how much charge flows through the circuit?

View SolutionThree identical coils $C_1, C_2$ and $C_3$ are placed coaxially. $C_2$ is exactly midway between $C_1$ and $C_3$. $C_1$ carries current $I$ in an anti-clockwise direction, while $C_3$ carries current $I$ in a clockwise direction. An induced current flows through $C_2$ in a clockwise direction when:
