(a) Explain mutual induction

(b) State four use of electromagnets

 

 The diagram above illustrates two coils X an arranged so that their axes are collinear. X is connected to an a.c. supply and has an amme in series with it while Y is connected to a lamp Explain the following observations. The (i) lamp is lit when the a.c. supply is switched on;

(ii) brightness of the light from the lamp increases when distance between X. and Y is decreased;

(iii) filament of the lamp glows brighter whet bundle of insulatttriron wires is placed along ccmmon axis of the coils.

(d) Two cells, one have an emf of 2.0 V and an internal resistance of 0.4 and the other having an emf of 2.0 V and an internal resistance of 0.1 \(\Omega\), are connected in parallel. The combination is then connected in series with a resistor.

(i) Draw a circuit diagram of the arrangement.

(ii) Calculate the current through 5\(\Omega\) resistor.
