Two circular coils mounted parallel to each other on the same axis carry steady currents. If an observer between the coils report that one coil is carrying a clockwise current I1 , while the other is carrying a counter clockwise current I2, between the two coils, then there is :

Solution

The correct option is A
a steady repulsive force

This can be explained by the right-hand thumb rule. As the current is in the opposite direction, the force will be repulsive in nature.

Q. A unit N-pole is placed on the axis of a circular coil carrying current in anti-clockwise direction. It experiences a force

Two concentric circular coils X and Y of radii 16 cm and 10 cm, respectively, lie in the same vertical plane containing the north to south direction. Coil X has 20 turns and carries a current of 16 A; coil Y has 25 turns and carries a current of 18 A. The sense of the current in X is anticlockwise, and clockwise in Y, for an observer looking at the coils facing west. Give the magnitude and direction of the net magnetic field due to the coils at their centre.
