2.
In a region, the electric potential varies as \(V = 10 - 50x\), where \(V\) is in volts and \(x\) is in meters. The electric field in the region is

\(10\ \text{N/C}\) along \(+x\)
\(10\ \text{N/C}\) along \(-x\)
\(50\ \text{N/C}\) along \(+x\)
\(50\ \text{N/C}\) along \(-x\)

3.
A wire of length \(L\) is bent round into (i) a square coil having \(N\) turns and (ii) a circular coil having \(N\) turns. The coil in both cases is free to turn about a vertical axis coinciding with the plane of the coil, in a uniform, horizontal magnetic field and carry the same currents. Find the ratio of the maximum value of the torque acting on the square coil to that on the circular coil.

4.
A current of \(4.0\,\text{A}\) flows through a wire of length \(1\,\text{m}\) and cross-sectional area \(1.0\,\text{mm}^2\), when a potential difference of \(2\,\text{V}\) is applied across its ends. Calculate the resistivity of the material of the wire.

5.
Consider the nuclear reaction \( X \to Y + Z \). Let \( M_x \), \( M_y \), and \( M_z \) be the masses of the three nuclei X, Y, and Z respectively. Then which of the following relations hold true?

\( (M_x - M_z)<M_y \)
\( (M_x - M_y)<M_z \)
\( M_x>(M_y + M_z) \)
\( M_x<(M_y + M_z) \)

6.
A magnet held vertically, with its north pole down, is dropped along the axis of a closed solenoid placed vertically on a table. If the observer looks down from the top,

the induced current will flow in the anticlockwise direction.
the induced current will flow in the clockwise direction.
no induced current will flow in the solenoid.
the magnet will fall with a constant velocity.
