उत्तर

Paheli’s electromagnet will attract more pins as it has more number of turns of wire on it and thus a stronger electromagnet.

Read the given passage and answer the following questions:

The home electrical connection consists of ‘live’, ‘neutral’ and ‘earth’ wires. The ‘live’ and the ‘neutral’ wires have potential difference of 220 V. The ‘earth’ is connected to ground. Due to a fault in the equipment or if the plastic coating on the ‘live’ and the ‘neutral’ wires gives a way the two wires come in contact with each other and a large current flows through it producing heat. If any inflammable material (such as wood, cloth, plastic, etc.) exists around that place it can catch fire. Therefore a fuse wire is used as a precautionary measure.

  1. Name the two wires having potential difference of 220 V.
  2. What is a short circuit?
  3. Write the function of a fuse.

What is that instrument which can detect the presence of electric current in a circuit?


Magnetic effect of current was discovered by ______.


Paheli does not have a night lamp in her room. She covered the bulb of her room with a towel at the night to get dim light. Has she taken the right step? Give one reason to justify your answer.


A student was asked to perform an experiment to study the force on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field. He took a small aluminium rod AB, a strong horse shoe magnet, some connecting wires, a battery and a switch and connected them as shown. He observed that on passing current, the rod gets displaced. On reversing the direction of current, the direction of displacement also gets reversed. On the basis of your understanding of this phenomenon, answer the following questions: 

  1. Why does the rod get displaced on passing current through it?
  2. State the rule that determines the direction of the force on the conductor AB.
    1. If the U-shaped magnet is held vertically and the aluminium rod is suspended horizontally with its end B towards due north, then on passing current through the rod from B to A as shown, in which direction will the rod be displaced?
    2. Name any two devices that use current carrying conductors and magnetic fields.

OR

Draw the pattern of magnetic field lines produced around a current carrying straight conductor held vertically on a horizontal cardboard. Indicate the direction of the field lines as well as the direction of current flowing through the conductor.
