i) When an electric dipole is placed in a uniform electric field, it experiences
a) Force as well as torque b) Torque but no net force
c) Force but no torque d) Neither force nor torque
ii) The dielectric constant of metal is
a) 0 b) 1 c) infinite d) 0 to 1

field which increases at rate of 1 T/s. The induced emf in the coil is
a) 0.1V b) 0.5V c) 1V d) 5V
iv) Faraday’s laws are consequence of the conservation of
a) charge b) energy c) magnetic field d) both (b) and (c)
v) Two plates of a parallel plate capacitor are 1cm apart and potential difference
between them is 10V. The electric field across the plates is
a) 10NC-1 b) 250NC-1 c) 500NC-1 d) 1000NC-1
vi) Susceptibility is negative for
a) Paramagnetic material b) Diamagnetic material
c) Ferromagnetic material d) None of the above
vii) Assertion: As the temperature of conducting wire increases, the drift velocity
of the electrons also increases.
Reason: With an increase in temperature, the average time of collision increases.
a) Both assertion and reason are correct, and reason is the correct explanation
for assertion.
b) Both assertion and reason are correct, but reason is not the correct explanation
for assertion
c) Assertion is true and reason is false
d) Both assertion and reason are false
(B) Answer the following questions briefly and to the point. [7]
i) What is the electric potential at the mid point of a dipole having charges + 2µC
ii) State Kirchhoff’s voltage law.
iii) Define Electric flux.
iv) Two protons enter normally to a magnetic field.If the kinetic energy of one proton
is four times the other, find the ratio of the radii of the paths traversed by them.
v) Is electrostatic force a conservative or a non conservative force?
vi) State Ampere-Maxwell law in Electromagnetism.
vii) What is the relation between the RMS value and the peak value of AC voltage?
