Correct answer: B, D
- Magnetic flux and induced current during entry
While the loop is partially entering the region , the area inside the magnetic field increases.
If is the length of the loop that has entered the field, then Since , the induced emf is Hence the induced current is
By Lenz's law, the magnetic force opposes the upward motion.
- Retarding force on the loop
Only the horizontal segment inside the field experiences a net vertical magnetic force during entry. Its magnitude is This force is downward, so Given we get
So during entry,
- Position during entry
Let be the upward displacement of the loop into the field from the instant the top edge touches . Then Integrating,
The loop completely enters when So complete entry is possible only if the maximum possible displacement satisfies
- Check option A
Given . Then So the loop does not stop before entering completely; it does enter fully.
Therefore, A is false.
- Check option B
When the complete loop is inside the uniform magnetic field, the flux through the loop is constant: Thus, so no induced current flows: Hence magnetic force on the loop is zero.
Therefore, B is true.
- Check option C
Given . Then the maximum displacement is So the loop stops before fully entering.
To find when it comes to rest: from velocity becomes zero only asymptotically as . It does not become exactly zero at any finite time.
The given time is not a stopping time.
Therefore, C is false.
- Check option D
Given . For complete entry, set Substitute : So Thus D is true.
- Final conclusion
Correct options are:
This matches the stored correct answer.
