उत्तर

The door bell or the electric bell makes use of the principle of an electromagnet. A horseshoe type of electromagnet is used in an electric bell which is connected to the source of current through a switch. It has a metallic gong, a hammer to strike the gong and screw attached to a soft iron strip.

When the button is pressed, the circuit is complete and the hammer gets attracted to the gong thereby striking it to produce a ringing sound.

Fill in the following blank with suitable words: 

 If a coil is viewed from one end, and the current flows in a clockwise direction, then this end is a ........... pole.


Which way does the wire in the diagram below  tend to move? 

 


A coil is connected to a galvanometer. When the N-pole of magnet is pushed into the coil, the galvanometer deflected to the right. What deflection, if any, is observed when:  

 the N-pole is removed?




A coil is connected to a galvanometer. When the N-pole of magnet is pushed into the coil, the galvanometer deflected to the right. What deflection, if any, is observed when: 

 the S-pole is inserted?


In the Activity shown below, how do we think the displacement of rod AB will be affected if

  1. current in rod AB is increased
  2. a stronger horse-shoe magnet is used
  3. length of the rod AB is increased?
  • Take a small aluminium rod AB (of about 5 cm). Using two connecting wires suspend it horizontally from a stand, as shown in Fig.
  • Place a strong horse-shoe magnet in such a way that the rod lies between the two poles with the magnetic field directed upwards. For this put the north pole of the magnet vertically below and south pole vertically above the aluminium rod (Fig.).
  • Connect the aluminium rod in series with a battery, a key and a rheostat.
  • Now pass a current through the aluminium rod from end B to end A.
  • What do you observe? It is observed that the rod is displaced towards the left. You will notice that the rod gets displaced.
  • Reverse the direction of current flowing through the rod and observe the direction of its displacement. It is now towards the right.
  • Why does the rod get displaced?


A current-carrying rod, AB, experiences a force perpendicular to its length and the magnetic field. Support for the magnet is not shown here, for simplicity.


(b) State whether the following statements are true or false:

(i) Magnetic poles exist in pairs.

(ii) Global warming is a desirable aspect of the intensified greenhouse effect.


In the arrangement shown in Figure  there are two coils wound on a non-conducting cylindrical rod. Initially the key is not inserted. Then the key is inserted and later removed. Then


______ cells cannot be recharged after use.


A wire with green insulation is usually the live wire of an electric supply.


A rectangular loop ABCD carrying a current I is situated near a straight conductor XY, such that the conductor is parallel to the side AB of the loop and is in the plane of the loop. If a steady current I is established in the conductor as shown, the conductor XY will ______.
