- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The given points (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) makes 360o angle at ‘O’. Hence angle made by vertices 1 and 2 with ‘O’ is 60o. Direction of magnetic field at ‘O’ due to each segment is same. Since it is symmetric star shape, magnitude will also be same.

JEE Advanced 2020 Hard - The circuit shown in the figure contains an inductor \(L\), a capacitor \(C_0\), a resistor \(R_0\) and an ideal battery. The circuit also contains two keys \(\mathrm{K}_1\) and \(\mathrm{K}_2\). Initially, both the keys are open and there is no charge on the capacitor. At an instant, key \(K_1\) is closed and immediately after this the current in \(R_0\) is found to be \(I_1\). After a long time, the current attains a steady state value \(I_2\). Thereafter, \(\mathrm{K}_2\) is closed and simultaneously \(\mathrm{K}_1\) is opened and the voltage across \(C_0\) oscillates with amplitude \(V_0\) and angular frequency \(\omega_0\).

- Paragraph:
One twirls a circular ring (of mass \(M\) and radius \(R\) ) near the tip of one's finger as shown in Figure 1 . In the process the finger never loses contact with the inner rim of the ring. The finger traces out the surface of a cone, shown by the dotted line. The radius of the path traced out by the point where the ring and the finger is in contact is \(r\). The finger rotates with an angular velocity \(\omega_{0}\). The rotating ring rolls without slipping on the outside of a smaller circle described by the point where the ring and the finger is in contact (Figure 2). The coefficient of friction between the ring and the finger is \(\mu\) and the acceleration due to gravity is \(g\).
