A metallic rod of mass per unit length 0.5 kg m-1 is lying horizontally on a smooth inclined plane which makes an angle of 30° with the horizontal. The rod is not allowed to slide down by flowing a current through it when a magnetic field of induction 0.25 T is acting on it in the vertical direction. The current flowing in the rod to keep stationery is:
1. 7.14 A
2. 5.98 A
3. 14.76 A
4. 11.32 A
In a mass spectrometer used for measuring the masses of ions, the ions are initially accelerated by an electric potential V and then made to describe semi-circular paths of radius R using a magnetic field B. If V and B are kept constant, the ratio , will be proportional to:

2.
3.
4. R
1. 5050 Ω
2. 5550 Ω
3. 6050 Ω
4. 4450 Ω
Force between two identical bar magnets whose centres are r metre apart is 4.8 N, when their axes are in the same line. If separation is increased to 2r, the force between them is reduced to
1. 2.4N 2. 1.2N
3. 0.6N 4. 0.3N
