Answer:
Acromegaly is a hormonal disorder that results when the pituitary gland produces excess growth hormone (GH). This disease is characterized by enlargement of the bones of the jaw, hand, and feet, thickened nose, lips, eyelids, and wide fingertips, and gorilla-like appearance of the person affected.

Question 2.
Which hormone is called anti-diuretic hormone? Write the name of the gland that secretes it.
Answer:
Vasopressin is also called an anti-diuretic hormone that is secreted by the posterior pituitary.

Question 3.
Name the gland that increases in size during childhood and decreases in size during adulthood. What important role does it play in case of infection?
Answer:
The thymus is small at birth, it increases in size during childhood and reaches the maximum size at puberty. During adulthood, it shrinks to its size at birth.

In an old person thymus gland is degenerated, resulting in a decreased production of thymosin. Thymosin plays an important role in immune development. Thus, the immune response against infections of old people becomes weak.

Question 4.
Distinguish between diabetes insipidus and diabetes mellitus.
Answer:
Diabetes insipidus :
Deficiency of Vasopressin causes a disease called diabetes insipidus. It does not involve loss of sugar in urine.

Question 2.
Describe the role of hypothalamus as a neuroendocrine organ. ‘
Answer:
Hypothalamus is located below the thalamus. It connects the neural and endocrine systems, as it closely tied to the pituitary gland. It responds to the sensory impulses received from different receptors by sending out appropriate neural or endocrine signals.

The hypothalamus is the master control centre of the endocrine system, as it contains several group of neuro secretary cells called nuclei, which produce hormones, called neuro hormones; These hormones directly control the pituitary gland which in turn secrete hormone that regulate the growth and functioning of other endocrine glands.

For example :
The two types of hormones produced by the hypothalamus are :
1) Releasing hormones :
Which stimulates the secretions of pituitary hormones.
Eg: 1) Thyrotropin releasing hormone – acts on anterior pituitary to release thyroid stimulating hormone.
2) Growth hormone releasing hormone – stimulate the release of growth hormone.

2) Inhibiting hormones :
Which inhibits the secretion of pituitary hormones.
Eg: 1) Growth hormone release inhibiting hormone – which inhibit the release of growth hormone from anterior pituitary.
2) Prolactin release inhibiting hormone – Inhibit the release of prolactin from anterior pituitary.

Question 3.
Give an account of the secretions of pituitary gland.
Answer:
The pituitary gland is also called hypophysis. Anatomically pituitary gland is divided into anterior and posterior pituitary.
I. Anterior Pituitary :
It produces six important peptides. They are ;
1) Growth hormone (GH) Somatotropin :
They promote growth of the entire body by increasing protein synthesis, cell division and cell differentiation.

2) Prolactin:
It causes enlargement of the mammary glands of the breast and initiate the maintenance of lactation in mammals. Prolactin also promote the growth of corpus luteum and stimulate the production of progesterone.

3) Thyroid stimulating hormone” (TSH) :
It stimulates the production of thyroid hormones from thyroid gland.

4) Adreno corticotropic hormone (ACTH) :
Controls the production of steroid hormones called gluco corticoids, by the adrenal cortex.

5) Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) :
It stimulates growth the development of the ovarian follicles in females. In males FSH along with the androgens, regulates spermatogenesis.

6) Luteinizing hormone (LH) :
In males it stimulates production of androgens. In females it stimulates the ovaries to produce estrogens and progesterone and it maintains corpus luteum.

II. Posterior pituitary :
It stores and releases two hormones called oxytocin and vasopressin.

Oxytocin :
In females it stimulates contraction of pregnant uterus during child birth and ejection of milk from the mammary gland.

Vasopressin (ADH) :
Affects the kidney and stimulates reabsorption of water and electrolytes by the DCT and collecting duct.

Question 4.
Compare a pituitary dwarf and a thyroid dwarf in respect of similarities and dismilarities they posses.
Answer:

Question 5.
Explain how hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can affect the body.
Answer:
Hypothyroidism:
Inadequate supply of iodine or impairment in the function of thyroid glands leads to decrease in production of thyroid hormones (T₃ & T₄) results in hypothyroidism and enlargement of the thyroid gland called Simple goiter.

During pregnancy due to hypothyroidism, defective development of the growing body leads to a disorder called Cretinism. Physical and mental growth gets severely stunted due to untreated congenital hypothyroidism, stunted growth, mental retardation, low IQ, deafness, and mutism are some characteristics features of this disease.

In adult women it may cause irregular menstrual cycles. Hypothyroidism in adult causes Myxoedema characterized by bagginess under the eyes, puffiness of face, dry skin, slowness in physical and mental activities.

Hyperthyroidism:
Over activity of thyroid, cancer of the gland or development of nodule of thyroid lead to hyper thyroidism. In adults it causes an abnormal growth leads to a disease called Exophthalmic goiter with characteristically protruded eyeballs. Hyperthyroidism also affects the physiology of the body i.e., increased metabolic rate, nervousness, rapid heartbeat, sweating, increased appetite etc.

Question 6.
Write a note on Addison’s disease and Cushing’s Syndrome.
Answer:
Addison’s disease: It is caused due to hyposecretion of glucocorticoids by the adrenal cortex. This disease is characterised by loss of weight, muscle weakness, fatigue and reduced blood pressure. Sometimes darkening of the skin in both exposed and non-exposed parts of the body occurs in this disorder.

Cushing’s Syndrome :
It results due to over production of glucocorticoids. This condition is characterised by breakdown of muscle proteins and redistribution of body fat resulting in spindly arms and legs, a round moon-face, buffalo hump on the back and pendulous abdomen is also observed. Wound healing is poor. The elevated level of cortisols causes hyperglycemia, over deposition of glycogen in liver and rapid gain of weight.

Question 7.
Why does sugar appear in the urine of a diabetic?
Answer:
Hyposecretion of insulin of pancreatic gland increases the level of glucose in blood called hyperglycemia. Prolonged hyperglycemia leads to a disease called diabetes mellitus.

In diabetic patients glucose or sugar appears in urine because kidney plays a special role in the homeostasis of blood glucose.’Glucose is continuously filtered by the glomeruli, reabsorbed and returned to the blood. If the level of glucose in blood is above 160 -180 mg/dl. i.e., in hyperglycemia condition glucose in primary urine is not completely reabsorbed, and returned to the blood. Some of which is retained and excreted in urine.

Question 8.
Describe the male and female sex hormones and their actions.
Answer:
The hormones, which are responsible for the development of secondary sexual characters and changes in different stages of life are called sex hormones.

Male sex hormones :
Androgens :
Androgens are produced by the Leydig cells of the testes and to a minor extent by the adrenal glands in both sexes.

Functions :
→ Growth, development and maintenance of male reproductive organs.
→ Sexual differentiation and secondary sexual characteristics.
→ Spermatogenesis.
→ Male pattern of aggressive behaviour.
→ Increases the protein synthesis and increases the glycolysis.

Female sex hormones:
1) Estrogens :
Synthesized by the follicles and corpus luteum of ovary.
Functions :
→ Development and maintenance of female reproductive organs.
→ Maintenance of menstrual cycle.
→ Development of secondary sexual characters.
→ Estrogen promotes the protein synthesis and calcification and bone growth.

2) Progesterone :
It is synthesized and secreted by corpus luteum and placenta. Functions: required for implantation of fertilised ovum and maintenance of pregnancy.

3) Follicle stimulating and Lutenizing hormones :
Both these hormones produced from anterior pituitary gland in both sexes.

Functions:
Both these hormones play an important role in secondary sexual characters in both sexes.

Question 9.
Write a note on the mechanism of action of hormones.
Answer:
Hormones are primary messengers which interacting with receptors and they generate secondary messengers. These secondary messengers regulate cellular metabolism in the target cells.

Mechanism of action of lipid insoluble hydrophillic hormone :
→ The Hormone binds to a stimulatory membrane bound receptor, and stimulate ‘G’protein.
→ ‘G’ protein of the cell membrane binds to GTP and activates adenylate cyclase.
→ Adenylate Cyclase forms cAMP from ATP.
→ cAMP activates the protein kinase, which activates the enzyme phosphorylase.
→ Phosphorylase further phosphorylate the inactive enzyme and convert it to active form and involved in the metabolic process. Eg : Epinephrine.

Mechanism of action of lipid soluble hormone:
Lipid soluble hormones easily diffuse through the cell membrane.
→ It binds to a specific receptor in the cytoplasm forming hormone receptor complex molecule.
→ This complex molecule enters the nucleus and binds to the DNA and stimulate the production of specific m-RNA molecule.
→ The m-RNA passes into the cytoplasm, where it is involved in the translation process and synthesizes a protein. These proteins produced by the cell as a response of hormone and plays an important role in their respective metabolism.
Eg : Aldosterone

Answer:
Force between two magnetic poles, F₁ = F;
Distance between two magnetic poles, d₁ = d
Force between two magnetic poles increased by double F₂ = 2F
Distance between two magnetic poles, d₂ = ?
From Coulombs law, F₁d₁² = F₂ d₂²
Fd² = 2 F d₂²
⇒ d₂² = \(\frac{\mathrm{d}^2}{2}\)
d₂ = \(\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\sqrt{2}}\)

Question 12.
If B is the magnetic field produced at the centre of a circular coil of one turn of length L carrying current I then what is the magnetic field at the centre of the same coil which is made into 10 turns ?
Answer:
For first circular coil; B₁ = B, n₁ = 1; I₁ = I; a₁ = \(\frac{\mathrm{L}}{2 \pi}\)
For second circular coil, B₂ = ? n₂ = 10; I₂ = I; a₂ = \(\frac{\mathrm{L}}{2 \pi}\)
As B = \(\frac{\mu_0 \mathrm{n} \mathrm{Ia}^2}{2 \mathrm{r}}\), B ∝ n.
\(\frac{\mathrm{B}_2}{\mathrm{~B}_1}=\frac{\mathrm{n}_2}{\mathrm{n}_1}\)

Question 2.
Explain the elements of the Earth’s magnetic field and draw a sketch showing the relationship between the vertical component, horizontal component and angle of dip.
Answer:
The magnetic field of the earth at a point on its surface can be specified by the declination D, the angle of dip or the inclination I and the horizontal component of the earth’s field HE. These are known as the elements of the earth’s magnetic field.

Explanation:

1. The total magnetic field at P can be resolved into a horizontal component H_E and a vertical component Z_E.
2. The angle that B_E makes with H_E is the angle of dip, I.
3. Representing the vertical component by Z_E, we have
   Z_E= B_E Sin I
   H_E = B_E Cos I
   Which gives Tan I = \(\frac{\mathrm{Z}_{\mathrm{E}}}{\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{E}}}\)

Question 3.
Define magnetic susceptibility of a material. Name two elements one having positive susceptibility and other having negative susceptibility.
Answer:

1. Susceptibility: When a material is placed in a magnetic field, the ratio of the intensity of magnetization acquired by it to the intensity of the applied magnetic field is called its susceptibility.
   Suspectibility χ = \(\frac{\text { Intensity of magnetisation, } \mathrm{I}}{\text { Applied magnetic field, } \mathrm{H}}\)
2. The susceptibility of a material represents its ability to get magnetism.
3. Susceptibility is a dimension less quantity.
4. Relation between μ_r and χ :
   a) Suppose that material is placed in a magnetic field of intensity H. Let I be the intensity of magnetisation acquired by it.
   b) Then the magnetic induction within the material is
   B = μ₀H + μ₀I ⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{B}}{\mathrm{H}}\) = μ₀[1 + \(\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{H}}\)]
   ⇒ μ = μ₀[1 + χ] ⇒ \(\frac{\mu}{\mu_0}\) = 1 + χ
   ∴ μ_r = 1 + χ [∵μ_r = \(\frac{\mu}{\mu_0}\)]
5. Negative susceptibility (χ) of diamagnetic elements are Bismuth (-1.66 × 10^-5) and copper (-9.8 × 10^-6).

   The axial field of a finite solenoid in order to demonstrate its similarity to that of a bar magnet
5. The magnetic field at point P due to bar magnet in the form of solenoid is B = \(\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \cdot \frac{2 m}{r^3}\)
6. The total magnetic field, at a point P due to solenoid is given by
   B = \(\frac{\mu_0 \mathrm{n} \mathrm{I}}{2} \frac{\mathrm{a}^2}{\mathrm{r}^3}(2 l)=\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{2 \mathrm{n}(2 l) \mathrm{I} \pi \mathrm{a}^2}{\mathrm{r}^3}\)
7. The magnitude of the magnetic moment of the solenoid is, m = n(2l) I (πa²).
   ∴ B = \(\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{2 \mathrm{~m}}{\mathrm{r}^3}\)
8. Therefore, magnetic moment of a bar magnet is equal to magnetic moment of an equivalent solenoid that produces the same magnetic field.

Question 7.
A small magnetic needle is set into oscillations in a magnetic field B obtain an expression for the time period of oscillation.
Answer:
Expression for time period of oscillation :

1. A small compass needle (magnetic dipole) of known magnetic moment m and moment of Inertia i is placing in uniform magnetic field B and allowing it to oscillate in the magnetic field.
2. This arrangement is shown in Figure.
3. The torque on the needle is τ = m × B
4. In magnitude τ = mB sin θ.
   Here τ is restoring torque and θ is the angle between m and B.
5. Therefore, in equilibrium i \(\frac{\mathrm{d}^2 \theta}{\mathrm{dt}^2}\) = – mB sinθ. Negative sign with mB sin0 implies that restoring torque is in opposition to deflecting torque.
   
6. For small values of o in radians, we approximate sinθ ≃ θ and get \(i \frac{\mathrm{d}^2 \theta}{\mathrm{dt}^2}\) ≃ – mBθ
   \(\frac{\mathrm{d}^2 \theta}{\mathrm{dt}^2} \approx \frac{-\mathrm{mB}}{\mathcal{j}} \theta\) …………….. (1)
   This represents a simple harmonic motion. .
7. From defination of simple harmonic motion, we have \(\frac{\mathrm{d}^2 \theta}{\mathrm{dt}^2}\) = – ω²θ …………… (2)
   From equation (I) and (II), we get ⇒ ω² = \(\frac{\mathrm{mB}}{\mathcal{J}}\)
   ∴ ω = \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{mB}}{\mathcal{J}}}\)
8. Therefore, the time period is T = \(=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\mathcal{J}}{\mathrm{mB}}}\)

Qeustion 8.
A bar magnet, held horizontally, is set into angular oscillations in the Earth’s magnetic field. It has time periods T₁ and T₂ at two places, where the angles of dip are θ₁ and θ₂ respectively. Deduce an expression for the ratio of the resultant magnetic fields at the two places.
Answer:

1. Suppose, the resultant magnetic fields is to be compared at two places A and B.
2. A barmagnet, held horizontally at A and which is set into angular oscillations in the Earth’s magnetic field.
3. Let time period of a bar magnet at place A’ is T₁ and angular displacement or angle of dip is θ₁.
4. As the bar magnet is free to rotate horizontally, it does nqt remain vertical component (B₁ sin θ₁). It can have only horizontal component (B₁ cosθ₁).
5. The time period of a bar magnet in uniform magnetic field is given by T = 2π \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{mB}_{\mathrm{H}}}}\)
   
6. Now, in this case T = T₁ and B_H = B₁Cosθ₁
7. Therefore time period of a bar magnet at place ‘A’ is given by
   T₁ = 2π \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{mB}_1 \cos \theta_1}}\) …………… (1) Where I is moment of Inertia of a barmagnet and m is magnitude of magnetic moment.
8. Similarly, the same bar magnet is placed at B and which is set into angular oscillations in the earth’s magnetic field.
9. Let time period of a bar magnet at place B is T₂ and angle of dip is θ₂.
10. Since horizontal component of earths field at B is B_H = B₂ cos θ₂, time period,
    T₂ = 2π \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{mB}_2 \cos \theta_2}}\) ………………… (2)
11. Dividing equation (1) by equation (2), we get \(\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{mB}_2 \cos \theta_2}{\mathrm{mB}_1 \cos \theta_1}}\)
    Squaring on both sides, we have \(\frac{\mathrm{T}_1^2}{\mathrm{~T}_2^2}=\frac{\mathrm{B}_2 \cos \theta_2}{\mathrm{~B}_1 \cos \theta_1}\)
12. But B₁ = μ₀H₁, and B₂ = μ₀H₂
    \(\frac{\mathrm{T}_1^2}{\mathrm{~T}_2^2}=\frac{\mu_0 \mathrm{H}_2 \cos \theta_2}{\mu_0 \mathrm{H}_1 \cos \theta_1} \)
13. Therefore, \(\frac{\mathrm{H}_1}{\mathrm{H}_2}=\frac{\mathrm{T}_2^2 \cos \theta_2}{\mathrm{~T}_1^2 \cos \theta_1}\)
14. By knowing T₁, T₂ and θ₁, θ₂ at different places A and B, we can find the ratio of resultant magnetic fields.

1. According to Gauss’s law for magnetism, the net magnetic flux (Φ_B) through any closed surface is always zero.
2. The law implies that the no. of magnetic field lines leaving any closed surface is always equal to the number of magnetic field lines entering it.
3. Suppose a closed surface S is held in a uniform magnetic field B. Consider a small vector area element ∆S of this surface as shown in figure.
4. Magnetic flux through this area element is defined as ∆Φ_B = B. ∆S. Then the net flux Φ_B, is,
   Φ_B = \(\sum_{\text {all }} \Delta \phi_B=\sum_{\text {all }} \text { B. } \Delta \mathrm{S}=0\)
5. If the area elements are really small, we can rewrite this equation as
   Φ_B = \(\oint\)B.ds = 0 …………………. (I)
   
6. Comparing this equation with Gauss’s law of electrostatics i.e., electric flux through a closed surface S is given by
   Φ_E = \(\oint \text { E. } \Delta S=\frac{q}{\varepsilon_0}\) …………….. (II) Where q is the electric charge enclosed by the surface.
7. In an electric dipole were enclosed by the surface equal and opposite charges in the dipole add upto zero. Therefore, Φ_E would be zero.
8. The fact that Φ_B = 0 indicates that the simplest magnetic element is a dipole or current loop.
9. The isolated magnetic poles, called magnetic monopoles are not known to exist.
10. All magnetic phenomena can be explained interms of an arrangement of magnetic dipoles and /or current loops.
11. Thus corresponding to equation (II) of Gauss’s theorem in electrostatics, we can visualize equation (I) as
    Φ_E = \(\int_S\) B . dS = μ₀ (m) + μ₀ (-m) = 0 where m is strength of N-pole and -m is strength of
    S – pole of same magnet.
12. The net magnetic flux through any closed surface is zero.

Problems

Question 1.
A coil of 20 turns has an area of 800 mm² and carries a current of 0.5A. If it is placed in a magnetic field of intensity 0.3T with its plane parallel to the field, what is the torque that it experiences ? ,
Answer:
n = 20; A = 800 mm² = 800 × 10^-6 m²; i = 0.5A; B = 0.3T; θ = 0°.
When the plane parallel to the field,
T = Bin A cos θ = 0.3 × 0.5 × 20 × 800× 10^-6 × cos 0°
∴ τ = 2.4 10^-3 Nm

Question 2.
In the Bohr atom model the electrons move around the nucleus in circular orbits. Obtain an expression the magnetic moment (p) of the electron in a Hydrogen atom in terms of its angular momentum L.
Answer:
Consider an electron of charge e, moves with constant speed v in a circular orbit of radius ‘r’ in Hydrogen atom as shown in fig.

The current constitute by revolving electron in circular motion around a nucleus, I = \(\).
Time period of orbiting electron, T = \(\frac{2 \pi \mathrm{r}}{\mathrm{v}}\) ⇒ I = \(\frac{e}{\frac{2 \pi r}{v}}=\frac{e v}{2 \pi r}\)
orbital magnetic moment, μ = IA = I (πr²)
⇒ μ = \(\frac{\mathrm{ev}}{2 \pi \mathrm{r}}\) (πr²) = \(\frac{\mathrm{evr}}{2}\)
μ = \(\frac{\mathrm{e}}{2 \mathrm{~m}}\) (mvr) [∵ Multiplying and dividing with ‘m’ on right side]
∴μ = \(\frac{\mathrm{e}}{2 \mathrm{~m}}\) L where L = mvr = angular momentum.

Qeustion 3.
A bar magnet of length 0.1m and with a magnetic moment of 5Am² is placed in a uniform a magnetic field of intensity 0.4T, with its axis making an angle of 60° with the field. What is the torque on the magnet ?
Answer:
Given, 2l = 0.1m; m = 5A – m²; B = 0.4T; θ = 60°.
Torque, T = mB sin θ = 5 × 0.4 × sin 60° = 2 × \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)
∴ T = 1.732 N – m

Question 4.
A solenoid of length 22.5 cm has a total of 900 turns and carries a current of 0.8 A. What is the magnetising field H near the centre and far away from the ends of the solenoid ?
Answer:
l = 22.5 cm = 22.5 × 10^-2 m = \(\frac{45}{2}\) × 10^-2m
N = 900; I = 0.8A; H = ?
H = \(\frac{\mathrm{NI}}{l}=\frac{900 \times 0.8}{\left(\frac{45}{2}\right) \times 10^{-2}}\)
H = \(\frac{900}{45}\) × 0.8 × 10² × 2
∴ H = 3200 Am^-1

Qeustion 5.
The horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field at a certain place is 2.6 × 10^-5T and the angle of dip is 60°. What is the magnetic field of the earth at this location ?
Answer:
Given H_E = 2.6 × 10^-5T;
D (or) δ = 60°
B_E = \(\frac{\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{E}}}{\cos \mathrm{D}}=\frac{2.6 \times 10^{-5}}{\cos 60^{\circ}}=\frac{2.6 \times 10^{-5}}{(1 / 2)}\) = 5.2 × 10^-5 T
∴ B_E = 5.2 × 10^-5 T

Question 6.
In the magnetic meridian of a certain place, the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field is 0.26 G and the dip angle is 60°. What is the magnetic field of the earth at this location ?
Solution:
It is given that H_E = 0.26 G. From Fig., we have

The earth’s magnetic field, B_E, its horizontal and vertical components. H_E and Z_E. Also shown are the declination, D and the inclination or angle of dip, I.
cos 60° = \(\frac{\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{E}}}{\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{E}}}\)
B_E = \(\frac{\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{E}}}{\cos 60^{\circ}}\)
= \(\frac{0.26}{(1 / 2)}\) = 0.52 G

Qeustion 7.
What is the magnitude of the equatorial and axial fields due to a bar magnet of length 8.0 cm at a distance of 50 cm from its mid-point ? The magnetic moment of the bar magnet is 0.40 A m².
Solution:
From Eq.

Question 8.
The earth’s magnetic field at the equator is approximately 0.4 G. Estimate the earth’s dipole moment. .
Solution:
The equatorial magnetic field is,
We are given that B_E ~ 0.4 G = 4 × 10^-5 T. For r, we take the radius of the earth 6.4 × 10⁶ m.
Hence,
m = \(\frac{4 \times 10^{-5} \times\left(6.4 \times 10^6\right)^3}{\mu_0 / 4 \pi}\) = 4 × 10² × (6.4 × 10⁶)³ (μ₀/4π = 10^-7)
= 1.05 × 10²³ A m²
This is close to the value 8 × 10²² A m² quoted in geomagnetic texts.

Textual Examples

Question 1.
In Fig, the magnetic needle has magnetic moment 6.7 × 10^-2 Am² and moment of inertia i = 7.5 × 10^-6 kg m². It performs 10 complete oscillations in 6.70 s. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field ?
Solution:
The time period of oscillation is, :
T = \(\frac{6.70}{10}\) = 0.67 s

The axial field of a finite solenoid in order to demonstrate its similarity to that of a bar magnet.
From Eq. B =
= \(\frac{4 \times(3.14)^2 \times 7.5 \times 10^{-6}}{6.7 \times 10^{-2} \times(.067)^2}\)
= 0.01 T

Question 2.
A short bar magnet placed with its axis at 30° with an external field of 800 G experiences a torque of 0.016 Nm.
(a) What is the magnetic moment of the magnet ?
(b) What is the work done in moving it from its most stable to most unstable position ?
(c) The bar magnet is replaced by a solenoid of cross-sectional area 2 × 10^-4 m² and 1000 turns, but of the same magnetic moment. Determine the current flowing through the solenoid.
Solution:
a) From Eq., τ = m B sin θ, θ = 30°, hence sin θ = 1/2.
Thus, 0.016 = m × (800 × 10^-4 T) × (1/2)
m = 160 × 2/800 =0.40 Am²

b) From Eq . U_m = -m. B, the most stable position is θ = 0° and the most unstable position is q = 180°. Work done is given by
W = U_m (θ = 180°) – U_m (θ = 0°)
= 2 m B = 2 × 0.40 × 800 × 10^-4 = 0.064 J

c) From Eq., m_s = NIA. From part (a), m_s = 0.40 Am²
0.40 = 1000 × I × 2 × 10^-4
I = 0.40 × 10⁴/(1000 × 2) = 2A

Question 3.
a) What happens if a bar magnet is cut into two pieces :
(i) transverse to its length,
(ii) along its length ?
b) A magnetised needle in a uniform magnetic field experiences a torque but no net force. An iron nail near a bar magnet, however, experiences a force of attraction in addition to a torque. Why ?
c) Must every magnetic configuration have a north pole and a south pole ? What about the field due to a toroid ?
d) Two identical looking iron bars A and B are given, one of which is definitely known to be magnetised. (We do not know which one.) How would one ascertain whether or not both are magnetised ? If only one is magnetised how does one ascertain which one ? (Use nothing else but the bars A and B].
Solution:
a) In either case, one gets two magnets, each with a north and south pole.

b) No force if the field is uniform. The iron nail experiences a non-uniform field due to the bar magnet. There is induced magnetic moment in the nail, therefore, it experiences both force and torque. Then net force is attractive because the induced south pole (say) in the nail is closer to the north pole of magnet than induced north pole.

c) Not necessarily. True only if the source of the field has a net nonzero magnetic moment. This is not so for a toroid or even for a straight infinite conductor.

d) Try to bring different ends of the bars closer. A repulsive force in some situation establishes that both are magnetised. If it is always attractive, then one of them is not magnetised. In a bar magnet the intensity of the magnetic field is the strongest at the two ends (poles) and weakest at the central region. This fact may be used to determine whether A or B is the magnet. In this case, to see which one of the two bars is magnet, pick up one, (say, A) and lower one of its end first one of the ends of the other (say, B) and then on the middle of B. If you notice that in the middle of B, A experiences no force, then B is magnetised. If you do not notice any change from the end to the middle of B, then A is magnetised.

Question 4.
What is the magnitude of the equatorial and axial fields due to a bar magnet of length 8.0 cm at a distance of 50 cm from its mid-point ? The magnetic moment of the bar magnet is 0.40 A m², the same as in Example – 2.
Solution:
From Eq.

Question 5.
Figure shows a small magnetised needle P placed at a point O. The arrow shows the direction of its magnetic moment. The other arrows show different positions (and orientations of the magnetic moment) of another identical magnetised needle Q.

a) In which configuration the system is not in equilibrium ?
b) In which configuration is the system in (i) stable, and (ii) unstable equilibrium ?
c) Which configuration corresponds to the lowest potential energy among all the configurations shown ?
Solution:
Potential energy of the configuration arises due to the potential energy of one dipole (say, Q) in the magnetic field due to other (P). Use the result that the field due to P is given by the expression. *
B_P = –\(\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{p}}}{\mathrm{r}^3}\) (on the normal bisector)
B_P = \(\frac{\mu_0 2}{4 \pi} \frac{\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{p}}}{\mathrm{r}^3}\) (on axis)
where mp is the magnetic moment of the dipole P.
Equilibrium is stable when m_Q is parallel to B_P, and unstable when it is anti-parallel to B_P. For instance for the configuration Q₃ for which Q is along the perpendicular bisector of the dipole P, the magnetic moment of Q is parallel to the magnetic field at the position 3. Hence Q₃ is stable. Thus,
a) PQ₁ and PQ₂
b) (i) PQ₃, PQ₆ (stable); (ii) PQ₅, PQ₄ (unstable)
c) PQ₆.

Question 6.
Many of the diagrams given in Fig. show magnetic field lines (thick lines in the figure) wrongly. Point out what is wrong with them. Some of them may describe electrostatic field lines correctly. Point out which ones.

Solution:

a) Wrong: Magnetic field lines can never emanate from a point, as shown in figure. Over any closed surface, the net flux of B must always be zero, i.e., pictorially as many field lines should seem to enter the surface as the number of lines leaving it. The field lines shown, in fact, represent electric field of a long positively charged wire. The correct magnetic field lines are circling the straight conductor.

b) Wrong: Magnetic field lines (like electric lines) can never cross each other, because otherwise the direction of field at the point of intersection is ambiguous. There is further error in the figure. Magnetostatic field lines can never form closed loops around empty space. A closed loop of static magnetic field line must enclose a region across which a current is passing. By contrast, electrostatic field lines can never form closed loops, neither in empty space, nor when the loop encloses charges.

c) Right: Magnetic lines are completely confined within a toroid: Nothing wrong here in field lines forming closed loops, since each loop encloses a region across which a current passes. Note, for clarity of figure, only a few field lines within the toroid have been shown. Actually, the entire region enclosed by the windings contains magnetic field.,

d) Wrong: Field lines due to a solenoid at its ends and outside cannot be so completely straight and confined; such a thing violates Ampere’s law. The lines should curve out at both ends, and meet eventually to form closed loops.

e) Right: These are field lines outside and inside a bar magnet. Note carefully the direction of field lines inside. Not all field lines emanate out of a north pole (or converge into a south pole). Around both the N-pole, and the S-pole, the next flux of the field is zero.

f) Wrong: These field lines cannot possibly represent a magnetic field. Look at the upper region. All the field lines seem to emanate out of the shaded plate. The net flux through a surface surrounding the shaded plate is not zero. This is impossible for a magnetic field. The given field lines, in fact, show the electrostatic field lines around a positively charged upper plate and a negatively charged lower plate. The difference between Fig. [(e) and (f)] should be carefully grasped.

g) Wrong: Magnetic field lines between two pole pieces cannot be precisely straight at the ends. Some fringing of lines is inevitable. Otherwise, Ampere’s law is violated. This is also true for electric field lines.

Question 7.
a) Magnetic field lines show the direction (at every point) along which a small magnetised needle aligns (at the point). Do the magnetic field line’s also represent the lines of force on a moving charged particle at every point ?
b) Magnetic field lines can be entirely confined within the core of a toroid, but not within a straight solenoid. Why ?
c) If magnetic monopoles existed, how would the Gauss’s law of magnetism be modified ?
d) Does a bar magnet exert a torque on itself due to its own field ? Does one element of a current – carrying wire exert a force on another element of the same wire ?
e) Magnetic field arises due to charges in motion. Can a system have magnetic moments even though its net charge is zero ?
Solution:
a) No. The magnetic force is always normal to B (remember magnetic force = qv × B). It is misleading to call magnetic field lines as lines of force.

b) If field lines were entirely confined between two ends of a straight solenoid, the flux through the cross-section at each end would be non-zero. But the flux of field B through any closed surface must always be zero. For a toroid, this difficulty is absent because it has no ‘ends’.

c) Gauss’s law of magnetism states that the flux of,B thrugh any closed surface is always
zero \(\int_s B \cdot d s\) = o.
If monopoles existed, the right hand side would be equal to the monopole (magnetic charge) qm enclosed by S. [Analogous to Gauss’s law of electrostatics, \(\int_s B \cdot d s\) = μ₀q_m
where q_m is the (monopole) magnetic charge enclosed by S.]

d) No. There is no force or torque on an element due to the field produced by that element itself. But there is a force (or torque) on an element of the same wire. (For the special case of a straight wire, this force is zero).

e) Yes. The average of the cahrge in the system may be zero. Yet, the mean of the magnetic moments due to various current loops may not be zero. We will come across such examples in connection with paramagnetic material where atoms have net dipole moment through their net charge is zero.

Question 8.
The earth’s magnetic field at the equator is approximately 0.4 G. Estimate the earth’s dipole moment.
Solution:
The equatorial magnetic field is,
B_E = \(\frac{\mu_0 \mathrm{~m}}{4 \pi \mathrm{r}^3}\)
We are given that B_E ~ 0.4 G = 4 × 10^-5 T. For r, we take the radius of the earth 6.4 × 10⁶ m. Hence,
m = \(\frac{4 \times 10^{-5} \times\left(6.4 \times 10^6\right)^3}{\mu_0 / 4 \pi}\) = 4 × 10² × (6.4 × 10⁶)³ (μ₀/4π = 10^-7)
= 1.05 × 10²³ A m²
This is close to the value 8 × 10²² A m² quoted in geomagnetic texts.

Question 9.
In the magnetic meridian of a certain place, the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field is 0.26 G and the dip angle is 60°. What is the magnetic field of the earth at this location ?
Solution:
It is given that H_E = 0.26 G. From Fig., we have

The earth’s magnetic field, B_E, its horizontal and vertical components. H_E and Z_E. Also shown are the declination, D and the inclination or angle of dip, I.
cos 60° = \(\frac{\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{E}}}{\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{E}}}\)
B_E = \(\frac{\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{E}}}{\cos 60^{\circ}}\)
= \(\frac{0.26}{(1 / 2)}\) = 0.52 G

Question 10.
A solenoid has a core of a material with relative permeability 400. The windings of the solenoid are insulated from the core and carry a current of 2A. If the number of turns is 1000 per metre, calculate (a) H, (b) M, (c) B and (d) the magnetising current I_m.
Solution:
a) The field H is dependent of the material of the core, and is
H = nI = 1000 × 2.0 = 2 × 10³ A/m

b) The magnetic field B is given by
B = μ_rμ₀H
= 400 × 4π × 10^-7 (N/A³) × 2 × 10³ (A/m) = 1.0 T

c) Magnetisation is given by
M = (B – μ₀ H)/μ₀
= (μ_rμ₀H – μ₀H)/μ₀ = (μ_r – 1) H = 399 × H ≃ 8 × 10⁵ A/m

d) The magnetising current IM is the additional current that needs to be passed through the windings of the solenoid in the absence of the core which would give a B value as in the presence of the core. Thus B = μ_rn₀ (I + I_M). Using I = 2A, B = 1 T, we get I_M = 794A.

Question 11.
A domain in ferromagnetic iron is in the form of a cube of side length 1 μm. Estimate the number of iron atoms in the domain and the maximum possible dipole moment and magnetisation of the domain. The molecular mass of iron is 55 g/mole and its density is 7.9 g/cm³. Assume that each iron atom has a dipole moment of 9.27 × 10^-24 A m³.
Solution:
The volume of the cubic domain is
V = (10^-6 m)³ = 10^-18 m³ = 10^-12 cm³
Its mass is volume × density = 7.9 g cm^-3 × 10^-12 cm³ = 7.9 × 10^-12 g
It is given that Afagadro number (6.023 × 10²³) of iron atoms have a mass of 55g. Hence,the number of atoms in the domain is
N = \(\frac{7.9 \times 10^{-12} \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}}{55}\)
= 8.65 × 10¹⁰ atoms
The maximum possible dipole moment m_max is achieved for the (unrealistic) case when all the atomic moments are perfectly aligned. Thus,
m_max = (8.65 × 10¹⁰) × (9-27 × 10^-24)
= 8.0 × 10^-13 Am²
The consequent magnetisation is
M_max = m_max/DomainVolume :
= 8.0 × 10^-13 Am²/10^-18 m³
= 8.0 × 10⁵ Am^-1.
