What are the directions of electric and magnetic field vectors relative to each other and relative to the direction of propagation of electromagnetic waves?

Two wires of equal length, one of copper and the other of manganin have the same resistance. Which wire is thicker?

A bar magnet is moved in the direction indicated by the arrow between two coils PQ and CD. Predict the directions of induced current in each coil.

For the same value of angle of incidence, the angles of refraction in three media A, B  and C are 15°, 25° and 35° respectively. In which medium would the velocity of light be minimum?

A proton and an electron have same kinetic energy. Which one has a greater de-Broglie wavelength and why?

Mention the two characteristic properties of the material suitable for making core of transformer?

A charge ‘q’ is placed at the centre of a cube of side l. What is the electric flux passing through each face of the cube?

A test charge ‘q’ is moved without acceleration from A to C along the path from A to B and then from B to C in the electric field E as shown in the figure.
(i) Calculate the potential difference between A and C.
(ii) At which point (of the two) is the electric potential more and why?

An electric dipole is held in a uniform electric field.
(i) Show that the net force acting on it is zero.
(ii) The dipole is aligned parallel to the field. Find the work done in rotating it through an angle of 180°.
