Agreed. This is simpler. Thanks

Your ideas are correct and you can take it from there. However, since you asked, you can do it more directly by noting that there are...

I think I will do it this way- for the entire wire covering the arc, the lengthwise turn density is N/(arc length). here arc length...

I'm not able to edit it right now, but thanks for pointing it out. how is that possible? even their solution has included the effect of...

I have tried to proceed with two methods, which agree with each other i) Energy analysis If we use work energy theorem, ## \sum W =...

yes It must be proportional to some quantity. I'm trying to consider its relation with an angle theta, i.e polar angle

this is the figure provided. My approach was to consider the field due to an elemental ring-shape conductor, using the standard formula...

I think I am satisfied with my solution, so I will continue using this kind of approach for such questions..

I agree that state 1 is the intended state. Also when I thought a bit more about this question, I think I understood it now, they are...

Your reasons for why it doesn't work are valid. Note that the observing eye as shown will still see the bottom of the container shifted...

The question seems very simple, and its solution is also very simple. But what bothers me is the wording- "energy of Molybdenum atoms"...

This post makes everything clear. Very high quality. All my doubts on this question got cleared! for a) I will take the direction of...

@palaphys, for an intuition, it helps to visualise flux lines. In the following diagram, the magnitude of the flux through the loop due...

1.##\frac{q}{\epsilon_0}## 2. ##\frac{-q}{\epsilon_0}## 3a)0 b)0

yes I wanted to do this
