Physics Question for revision
1. State any two properties of magnetic field lines.
2. What is a magnetic field ? How can the direction of magnetic field lines at a place be determined ?
3. Explain why, two magnetic field lines do not intersect each other.
4. State and explain Maxwell’s right-hand thumb rule.
5. Draw the magnetic lines of force due to a circular wire carrying current.
6. In the straight wire A, current is flowing in the vertically downward direction whereas in wire B the current is flowing in the vertically upward direction. What is the direction of magnetic field :
(a) in wire A ?
(b) in wire B ?
Name the rule which you have used to get the answer.
7. A thick wire is hanging from a wooden table. An anticlockwise magnetic field is to be produced around the wire by passing current through this wire by using a battery. Which terminal of the battery should be connected to the :
(a) top end of wire ?
(b) bottom end of wire ?
Give reason for your choice.

11. State the rule to determine the direction of a (i) magnetic field produced around a
straight conductor-carrying current, (ii) force experienced by a current-carrying
straight conductor placed in a magnetic field which is perpendicular to it, and
(iii) current induced in a coil due to its rotation in a magnetic field.
12. When is the force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field largest?
