Two ring magnets P and Q each with a hole in the centre are dropped one over the, other on a plastic rod taking care that like poles of the magnets face each other. One magnet say Q. comes to the bottom of the rod and it would appear that the other magnet say P floats above the first leaving gap in between. It is so because

STATEMENT-1 A vertical iron rod has a coil of wire wound over it at the bottom end.An alternating current flows in the coil.The rod goes through a conducting ring as shown in the figure.The ring can float at a certain height above the coil. because STATEMENT-2 In the above situation, a current is induced in the ring which interacts with the horizontal component of the magnetic field to produce an average force in the upward direction

In the figure shown, the magnet is pushed towards the fixed ring along the axis of the ring and it passes through the ring.

The figure shows a conducting ring of radius R . A uniform steady magnetic field B lies perpendicular to the plane of the ring a circular region r (lt R) . If the resistance per unit length of the ring is lamda , then the current induced in the ring when its radius gets doubled is

Magnetic field in a space is given as B = -(B_(o)x)/(R )hat(k) . A circular ring of radius R having current I lies in the space with centre at origin as shown in the figure. Find the magnitude of net magnetic force acting on the circular ring due to the magnetic field.

The figure shows a non conducting ring of radius R carrying a charge q . In a circular region of Radius r , a uniform magnetic field B perpendicular to the plane of the ring varies at a constant rate (dB)/(dt)=beta . The torque on the ring is
