A magnet is dropped vertically downwards...

A magnet is dropped vertically downwards along the axis of the Aluminium loop of wire lying horizontally. Will there be any difference in the time of fall if the wire is at room temperature and heated to below its melting point ? If so, explain. (Hint: Resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its temperature).

Assertion: When we increase the temperature of a metal wire then its electrical resistance increases. Reason: When we increase the temperature of a conductor then its relaxation time also increases.

Define resistance of a conductor and its cause. Explain the factors on which its value depends. How will the resistance of a wire of metal be affected if its temperature is changed?

A copper ring having a cut such as not to from a complete loop is held horizontally and a bar magnet is dropped through the ring with its length along the axis of the ring. The acceleration of the falling magnet is

Newton’s law of cooling says that the rate of cooling of a body is proportional to the temperature difference between the body and its surrounding when the difference in temperature is small. (a) Will it be reasonable to assume that the rate of heating of a body is proportional to temperature difference between the surrounding and the body (for small difference in temperature) when the body is placed in a surrounding having higher temperature than the body? (b) Assuming that our assumption made in (a) is correct estimate the time required for a cup of cold coffee to gain temperature from 10^(@)C to 15^(@)C when it is kept in a room having temperature 25^(@)C . It was observed that the temperature of the cup increases from 5^(@)C to 10^(@)C in 4 min

Assertion : A wire of uniform cross-section and uniform resistivity is connected across an ideal cell. Now the length or wire is doubled keeping volume of wire constant. The drift velocity of electrons after stretching the wire becomes one fourth of what it was before streching the wire. Reason: If a wire (or uniform resistivity and uniform cross-section) of length l_(0) is stretched by a factor n, then its resistance becomes n^(2) times the one before stretching the wire (the volume of wire is kept constant in stretching process.) Fruther at constant potential difference, current is inversely proportional to resistance. Drift velocity of free electron is directly proportional to current and inversely proportional to cross-sectional area of current carrying wire.

A special metal S conducts electricity without any resistance. A closed wire loop made of S does not allow any change in flux through itself by inducting a suitable current to generate a compensating flux. This current gives rise to a magnetic moment which in turn repels the source of magnetic field or flux. Consider such a loop, of radius a, with its center at the origin. A magnetic dipole of moment m is brought along the axis of this loop from infinity to a point at distance r(>> a) from the center of the loop with its north pole always facing the loop, as shown in the figure below. The magnitude of magnetic field of a dipole m at a point on its axis at distance r is (mu_0 m)/(2 pi r^3) . The magnitude of the force between two magnetic dipoles with moments m_1 and m_2 separated by a distance r on common axis with their north pole facing each other is (k m_1 m_2)/r^4 where k is a constant of appropriate dimensions. The direction of this force is along line joining two dipoles. When the dipole m is placed at a distance r from center of the loop the current induced in the loop will be proportional to
