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 N-pole is removed?
Solution
When the N-pole of a magnet is removed, deflection will take place in left direction because the induced current will flow in other direction.

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:
- Why does the rod get displaced on passing current through it?
- State the rule that determines the direction of the force on the conductor AB.
