The percentage increase in magnetic field (B) when space within a current carrying solenoid is filled with magnesium (magnetic susceptibility chi_mathrmmg = 1.2times 10^-5 ) is:

Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula The magnetic field inside a filled solenoid is: B_textnew = mu n I The magnetic field in air is: B_textold = mu_0 n I Relative permeability mu_r and susceptibility chi are related by: mu_r = fracmumu_0 = 1 + chi ### Core Logic The percentage increase in magnetic field is: \% text change in B = fracB_textnew - B_textoldB_textold times 100\% \% text change in B = fracmu - mu_0mu_0 times 100\% = (mu_r - 1) times 100\% = chi times 100\% ### Step 1: Substitute and Calculate Given susceptibility chi_mathrmmg = 1.2 times 10^-5: \% text change = 1.2 times 10^-5 times 100\% = 1.2 times 10^-3\% Convert decimal to fraction: 1.2 times 10^-3\% = frac65 times 10^-3\% ### Pattern Recognition Sees: Susceptibility and solenoid field percentage change. Shortcut: The fractional change in magnetic field when inserting a core is exactly equal to its magnetic susceptibility chi. Thus, the percentage change is just chi times 100. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Physics: Magnetism and Matter

Q55 jee_main_2024_29_jan_morning Magnetic Dipole
The magnetic potential due to a magnetic dipole at a point on its axis situated at a distance of 20 mathrm~cm from its center is 1.5 times 10^-5 mathrm~T cdot m. The magnetic moment of the dipole is ________ mathrmA cdot m^2. left(text Given: fracmu_04 pi = 10^-7 mathrm~T cdot m cdot A^-1right)$
Numerical Answer. Answer: 6 to 6

Solution

### Related Formula The magnetic potential (V) at an axial location at distance r from the center of a magnetic dipole is given by: V = fracmu_04pi fracMr^2 where M represents the magnetic moment. ### Core Logic Given values: V = 1.5 times 10^-5 mathrm~T cdot m r = 20 mathrm~cm = 0.2 mathrm~m fracmu_04pi = 10^-7 mathrm~T cdot m cdot A^-1 ### Step 1: Set up the Formula Substituting values into the axial expression: 1.5 times 10^-5 = 10^-7 times fracM(0.2)^2 1.5 times 10^-5 = 10^-7 times fracM0.04 ### Step 2: Isolate and Compute M M = frac1.5 times 10^-5 times 0.0410^-7 M = frac0.06 times 10^-510^-7 = 0.06 times 10^2 = 6 mathrm~A cdot m^2 Therefore, the magnetic moment of the dipole is 6 \mathrm{~A \cdot m^2}. ### Pattern Recognition Axial potential fields scale inversely with the square of distance (V \propto \frac{1}{r^2}$), analogous to electrostatic dipole potentials. Ensure the distance is converted directly to meters before squaring. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Physics: Magnetism and Matter
