Question 173 of 974

173HardJee Advance2009

Six point charges, each of the same magnitude q, are arranged in different manners as shown in Column II. In each case, a point M and a line PQ passing through M are shown. Let E be the electric field and V be the electric potential at M (potential at infinity is zero) due to the given charge distribution when it is at rest. Now, the whole system is set into rotation with a constant angular velocity about the line PQ. Let B be the magnetic field at M and $\mu be the magnetic moment of the system in this condition. Assume each rotating charge to be equivalent to a steady current. Column I Column II (A) E=0 (P) Charge are at the corners of a regular hexagon. M is at the centre of the hexagon. PQ is perpendicular to the plane of the hexagon. (B) V\ne 0 (Q) Charges are on a line perpendicular to PQ at equal intervals. M is the midpoint between the two innermost charges. (C) B=0 (R) Charges are placed on two coplanar insulating rings at equal intervals. M is the common centre of the rings. PQ is perpendicular to the plane of the rings. (D) \mu \ne 0$ (S) Charges are placed at the corners of a rectangle of sides a and 2a and at the mid points of the longer sides. M is at the centre of the rectangle. PQ is parallel to the longer sides. (T) Charges are placed on two coplanar, identical insulating rings are equal intervals. M is the midpoint between the centres of the rings. PQ is perpendicular to the line joining the centres and coplanar to the rings.
