प्रश्न
Explain the following :
Several soft iron pins can cling, one below the other, from the pole of a magnet.
उत्तर
Several soft iron pins can cling one below the other from the pole of a magnet because the magnet induces magnetism in an iron nail which gets attracted by the magnet and clings to it. This magnetized nail magnetizes the other nail near it by magnetic induction and attracts it. This process continues until force of attraction on first nail is sufficient to balance the total weight of all nails in chain.

A wire 10 cm long carrying a current of 1.5 A is held in a uniform magneÑic field in which B = 10-3 T. Calculate the force on the wire if it is held perpendicular to the lines of the magnetic field.
Assertion (A): Magnetic field lines never intersect each other.
Reason (R): If they intersect, then at the point of intersection, the compass needle would point towards two directions, which is not possible.
