प्रश्न
Two circular loops of equal radii are placed coaxially at some separation. The first is cut and a battery is inserted in between to drive a current in it. The current changes slightly because of the variation in resistance with temperature. During this period, the two loops _______________ .
विकल्प
attract each other
repel each other
do not exert any force on each other
attract or repel each other depending on the sense of the current

उत्तर
attract each other
Consider loops A and B placed coaxially as above. Let the direction of the current in loop A be clockwise when a battery is connected to it. According to the right-hand screw rule, the direction of the magnetic field due to this current will be towards the left. Now, the current through this loop will decrease with time due to an increase in resistance with temperature. So, the magnetic field due to this current will also decrease with time. This changing current will induce a current in loop B. Now, according to Lenz's law, the direction of the induced current in loop B will be such that it will oppose the decrease in the magnetic field due to loop A. Hence, current will be induced in a clockwise direction in loop B. Also, because the direction of the currents in the loops is the same, they will attract each other.
