Question

A coil is connected to a galvanometer. When the N-pole of magnet is pushed into the coil, the galvanometer deflected to the right. What deflection, if any, is observed when: 

the magnet is a rest in the coil? 

Solution

 When the magnet is at rest in the coil, no deflection of galvanometer needle will take place.
It is because there is no relative motion between the coil and the magnet. Thus, the current induced is zero.

In the Activity shown below, how do we think the displacement of rod AB will be affected if

  1. current in rod AB is increased
  2. a stronger horse-shoe magnet is used
  3. length of the rod AB is increased?
  • Take a small aluminium rod AB (of about 5 cm). Using two connecting wires suspend it horizontally from a stand, as shown in Fig.
  • Place a strong horse-shoe magnet in such a way that the rod lies between the two poles with the magnetic field directed upwards. For this put the north pole of the magnet vertically below and south pole vertically above the aluminium rod (Fig.).
  • Connect the aluminium rod in series with a battery, a key and a rheostat.
  • Now pass a current through the aluminium rod from end B to end A.
  • What do you observe? It is observed that the rod is displaced towards the left. You will notice that the rod gets displaced.
  • Reverse the direction of current flowing through the rod and observe the direction of its displacement. It is now towards the right.
  • Why does the rod get displaced?


A current-carrying rod, AB, experiences a force perpendicular to its length and the magnetic field. Support for the magnet is not shown here, for simplicity.
