A circular disc of the radius $0.2 \text{ m}$ is placed in a uniform magnetic field of induction $\frac{1}{\pi} \text{ Wb m}^{-2}$ in such a way that its axis makes an angle of $60^\circ$ with $\vec{B}$. The magnetic flux linked to the disc will be:
Six charges, three positive and three negative of equal magnitude are to be placed at the vertices of a regular hexagon (P, Q, R, S, T, U) such that the electric field at the center O is double the electric field when only one positive charge of same magnitude is placed at R. Which of the following arrangements of charges is possible for P, Q, R, S, T and U respectively?
Two pith balls carrying equal charges are suspended from a common point by strings of equal length, the equilibrium separation between them is r (as shown in Fig. I). Now, as shown in Fig. II, the strings are rigidly clamped at half the height. The equilibrium separation between the balls now becomes:
An inductor coil of self-inductance $10 \text{ H}$ carries a current of $1 \text{ A}$. The magnetic field energy stored in the coil is:
A uniform magnetic field is restricted within a region of radius $r$. The magnetic field changes with time at a rate $\frac{dB}{dt}$. Loop 1 of radius $R$ ($R > r$) encloses the region $r$ and Loop 2 of radius $R$ is entirely outside the region of the magnetic field as shown in the figure. Then the electromotive force (emf) generated is:
A 800 turn coil of effective area $0.05 \text{ m}^2$ is kept perpendicular to a magnetic field $5 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T}$. When the plane of the coil is rotated by $90^\circ$ around any of its coplanar axis in $0.1 \text{ s}$, the emf induced in the coil will be:
Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of lengths l are initially at a distance d (d << l) apart because of their mutual repulsion. The charges begin to leak from both the spheres at a constant rate. As a result, the spheres approach each other with a velocity v. Then v varies as a function of the distance x between the spheres, as:
A uniformly charged conducting sphere of 2.4 m diameter has a surface charge density of $80.0 \, \mu\text{C/m}^2$. The charge on the sphere is:
Two conducting circular loops of radii $R_1$ and $R_2$ are placed in the same plane with their centres coinciding. If $R_1 \gg R_2$, the mutual inductance $M$ between them will be directly proportional to:
A car sometimes overturns while taking a turn. When it overturns, it is:

A toy car with charge q moves on a frictionless horizontal plane surface under the influence of a uniform electric field E. Due to the force qE, its velocity increases from 0 to 6 m/s in a one-second duration. At that instant, the direction of the field is reversed. The car continues to move for two more seconds under the influence of this field. The average velocity and the average speed of the toy car between 0 to 3 seconds are respectively:
