Two current carrying loops of wire are placed as shown in the figure, the inner loop \((P)\) having a radius \((r)\) which is much smaller than the radius \((R)\) of the outer loop \((Q)\). Both the loops are concentric, but the currents in one case are in the same sense while in the other, in the opposite sense.

In both cases, the torque on \(P\) due to \(Q\) is zero. If \(P\) is slightly rotated about a diameter, then, it will return to its initial position in:
1. case (I) but not in case (II).
2. case (II) but not in case (I).
3. both cases (I) and (II).
4. neither of cases (I) and (II).

Two very long wires of length \(L\) are placed parallel to each other separated by a distance \(r(r << L)\). The wires carry equal currents \(i\). The force between the two wires is nearly:
1. \(\dfrac{\mu_{0} i^{2} L}{2 \pi r}\) 2. \(\dfrac{\mu_{0} i^{2} L}{4 \pi r}\)
3. \(\dfrac{\mu_{0} i^{2} L}{2 r}\) 4. \(\dfrac{\mu_{0} i^{2} L}{4 r}\)

Identical cells are connected to identical square wire loops as shown in the two diagrams, and the magnetic fields are respectively \(B_1\) and \(B_2\) at the centres. 

Then, we can conclude that:
1. \(B_1>0, B_2=0\)
2. \(B_1> B_2>0\)
3. \(B_2> B_1>0\)
4. \(B_1=0, B_2=0\)

Two long straight wires carrying currents \(i_1, i_2\) are placed as shown in the figure, just avoiding contact. The separation between the wires is negligible, and the wires are aligned along \(x\) & \(y\) axes respectively. 
 
The wire along the \(x\text-\)axis experiences:
1. a force along \(+y\) axis only.
2. a force along \(-y\) axis.
3. zero force, but a torque.
4. no force and no torque.

Two semi-circular current-carrying wires are placed in the same plane so that they share a common centre. The magnetic field due to any one of them at the common centre has the magnitude, \(B_O\). When one of them is tilted so that it is in a perpendicular plane, with the same centre, the magnetic field at the common centre is \(B\). Then,
1. \(B =2B_O\)
2. \(B~=\dfrac{B_O}{2}\)
3. \(B=\sqrt 2 B_O\)
4. \(B=\dfrac{B_O}{\sqrt 2}\)
