A Helmholtz coil has pair of loops, each with \(N\) turns and radius \(R\). They are placed coaxially at distance \(R\) and the same current \(I\) flows through the loops in the same direction. The magnitude of magnetic field at \(P\), midway between the centres \(A\) and \(C\), is given by (Refer to figure)

- A \(\frac{{4N{\mu _0}I}}{{{5^{3/2}}R}}\)
- B \(\frac{{8N{\mu _0}I}}{{{5^{3/2}}R}}\)
- C \(\frac{{4N{\mu _0}I}}{{{5^{1/2}}R}}\)
- D \(\frac{{8N{\mu _0}I}}{{{5^{1/2}}R}}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\frac{{8N{\mu _0}I}}{{{5^{3/2}}R}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Point \(P\) is situated at the mid-point of the line joining the centres of the circular wires which have same radii \((R)\). The magnetic fields \((\vec{B})\) at \(P\) due to the currents in the wires are in same direction. Magnitude of magnetic fieldat point, \(P\)…

JEE Mains 2019 Easy - Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) :
Three identical spheres of same mass undergo one dimensional motion as shown in figure with initial velocities \(v_{\mathrm{A}}=5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}, v_{\mathrm{B}}=2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}, v_{\mathrm{C}}=4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). If we wait sufficiently long for elastic collision to happen, then \(v_{\mathrm{A}}=4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}, v_{\mathrm{B}}=2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), \(v_{\mathrm{C}}=5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) will be the final velocities.
Reason (R): In an elastic collision between identical masses, two objects exchange their velocities.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :JEE Mains 2025 Easy - Let \(S_n\) denote the sum of the first \(n\) terms of an \(A.P\).. If \(S_4 = 16\) and \(S_6 = -48\), then \(S_{10}\) is equal toJEE Mains 2019 Hard
