  1. Name the rule to find the direction of force on a current-carrying conductor placed in direction perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field.

 

  1. What is the relation between a tesla, an ampere and a meter.

 

Answer:

  1. Electric short-circuit occurs when the live wire and the neutral wire come in direct contact. This occurs when the insulation of wires is damaged or there is a fault in the electric appliance.

 

  1. The region around a magnet or a current-carrying conductor, a coil or a solenoid where the magnetic force of attraction or repulsion is felt is called the magnetic field.

 

  1. A magnet has attractive and directive properties.

 

  1. South pole to north pole.

 

  1. Parallel and equidistant field lines represent a uniform magnetic field.

 

  1. Every current-carrying conductor has a magnetic field around it.

 

  1. The magnetic field lines are concentric circles with the conductor at the centre.

 

  1. Right-Hand Thumb Rule.

 

  1. By detecting the magnetic field due to wire with the help of a compass.

 

  1. Tesla (T).

 

  1. A cylindrical coil is called a solenoid.

 

  1. To find the polarities of a current-carrying coil or a solenoid.

 

  1. The magnetic field inside a solenoid becomes very strong (around 5000 times its value without soft iron core).

 

  1. Aluminium, nickel, cobalt and iron.

 

  1. Iron, nickel, aluminium and titanium,

 

  1. Soft iron core.

 

  1. Steel, Alnico and Nipermag.
