What will be the direction of current at the cold junction of a thermocouple thermometer in which iron and copper is being used. (Fe to Cu or Cu to Fe). 

Solution

The current will flow at the cold junction of a thermocouple thermometer in which Fe and Cu are used from Cu to Fe (Sb, Fe, Zn, Ag, Au, Pb, Mn, Cu, Pt, Ni, Bi).

A wire of length 10 cm, carrying 10 Amp of current is placed at an angle of 53° with respect to a magnetic field B of strength 0.1 Tesla. Find the force

experienced by the wire [use space sin space 53 to the power of straight o space equals space 4 over 5]

Solution

Here,
Length of wire, l = 10 cm = 0.10 m

Current, i = 10 Amp.

θ = 53°

Magnetic field, B = 0.1 T

F = ?
sin 53o = 4/5 
F = Bil sin straight theta 
  = 10 space straight x space 1 over 10 straight x 1 over 10 straight x 4 over 5 
   = 0.08 N

Find the percentage increase in magnetic field intensity when a solenoid carrying current is filled with aluminium [x for A1 = 2.1 x 10-3 ].

Solution

 The magnetic field intensity of solenoid current i is given by    X for A1

               =    2.1 x 10-3

% increase = 2.1 x 10-3 x 100
               = .21%

How is an ideal inductor obtained?

Solution

An ideal inductor is obtained by using thick wire having low resistance.
