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?

These consist of two statements – Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Answer these questions selecting the appropriate option given below:
Assertion: On freely suspending a current – carrying solenoid, it comes to rest in Geographical N-S direction.
Reason: One end of current carrying straight solenoid behaves as a North pole and the other end as a South pole, just like a bar magnet.
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.
