Heart-lung machines and artificial kidney machines employ blood pumps. $A$ mechanical pump can mangle blood cells. The figure represents an electromagnetic pump. The blood is confined to an electrically insulating tube, represented as a rectangle of width $\omega$ and height $h$. Two electrodes fit into the top and the bottom of the tube. The potential difference between them establishes an electric current through the blood, with current density $J$ over a section of length $L$. $A$ perpendicular magnetic field $B$ exists in the same region. The section of liquid in the magnetic field experiences a pressure increase given by:

  • A
    $JLB$
  • B
    $JhB$
  • C
    $\frac{J\omega hB}{L}$
  • D
    No pressure increase occurs.

$A$ current of $10 \ A$ flows through two long parallel wires. The magnetic force per unit length on each wire is $2 \times 10^{-3} \ N/m$. If their currents are doubled and the separation between them is halved,then the magnetic force per unit length of each wire becomes $...... \times 10^{-3} \ N/m$.

$A$ straight wire $AB$ of mass $40\,g$ and length $50\,cm$ is suspended by a pair of flexible leads in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude $0.40\,T$ as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the current required in the wire to remove the tension in the supporting leads is ...........$A$. (Take $g=10\,ms^{-2}$).

$A$ $100$ turn rectangular coil $ABCD$ (in $xy$-plane) is hung from one arm of a balance (Figure). $A$ mass of $500 \text{ g}$ is added to the other arm to balance the weight of the coil. $A$ current of $4.9 \text{ A}$ passes through the coil and a constant magnetic field of $0.2 \text{ T}$ acting inward (in $xz$-plane) is switched on such that only arm $CD$ of length $1 \text{ cm}$ lies in the field. How much additional mass '$m$' must be added to regain the balance?

$A$ large current-carrying plate is kept along the $y-z$ plane with $k \text{ A/m}$ current per unit length in the $+y$ direction. Find the net force on the semicircular current-carrying loop lying in the $x-y$ plane. The radius of the loop is $R$,the current is $i$,and the center is at $(d, 0, 0)$ where $d > R$.

An infinitely long current-carrying wire and a small current-carrying loop are in the plane of the paper as shown. The radius of the loop is $a$ and the distance of its centre from the wire is $d$ $(d >> a)$. If the loop applies a force $F$ on the wire,then:
