उत्तर १
On decreasing the current the magnetic field lines become rarer.
उत्तर २

A magnetic compass needle is placed in the plane of paper near point A as shown in Figure. In which plane should a straight current carrying conductor be placed so that it passes through A and there is no change in the deflection of the compass? Under what condition is the deflection maximum and why?

AB is a current carrying conductor in the plane of the paper as shown in Figure. What are the directions of magnetic fields produced by it at points P and Q? Given r1 > r2, where will the strength of the magnetic field be larger?

It is established that an electric current through a metallic conductor produces a magnetic field around it. Is there a similar magnetic field produced around a thin beam of moving
- alpha particles,
- neutrons? Justify your answer.
A compass needle is placed near a current carrying wire. State your observations for the following cases and give reasons for the same in each case -
- Magnitude of electric current in wire is increased.
- The compass needle is displaced away from the wire.
When is the force experienced by a current-carrying straight conductor placed in a uniform magnetic field.
- Maximum
- Minimum
- Assertion: A compass needle is placed near a current-carrying wire. The deflection of the compass needle decreases when the magnitude of the current in the wire is increased.
- Reason: The strength of a magnetic field at a point near the conductor increases by increasing the current.
