MCQ
The figure shows certain wire segments joined together to form a coplanar loop. The loop is placed in a perpendicular magnetic field in the direction going into the plane of the figure. The magnitude of the field increases with time. $I_1$ and $I_2$ are the currents in the segments $ab$ and $cd$. Then,
  • A
    $I_1>I_2$
  • B
    $I_1 < I_2$
  • C
    $I_1$ is in the direction ba and $I_2$ is in the direction $ed$
  • $I_1$ is in the direction ab and $I_2$ is in the direction $de$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$I_1$ is in the direction ab and $I_2$ is in the direction $de$
d
According to Lenz's law, current will be in anticlockwise sense as magnetic field is increasing into the plane of paper.

The induced magnetic field has to be out of the plane of the paper.

Hence, the current in the segment ab will be from $a$ to $b$ and current in the segment cd will be $d$ to $c$.

Consider the two idealized systems: $(i)$ a parallel plate capacitor with large plates and small separation and $(ii)$ a long solenoid of length$ L > > R$, radius of cross-section. In $(i)$ E is ideally treated as a constant between plates and zero outside. In $(ii)$ magnetic field is constant inside the solenoid and zero outside. These idealised assumptions, however, contradict fundamental laws as below:
For Young's double slit experiment, two statements are given below :

Statement $I:$ If screen is moved away from the plane of slits, angular separation of the fringes remains constant.

Statement $II:$ If the monochromatic source is replaced by another monochromatic source of larger wavelength, the angular separation of fringes decreases.
