$1\,\mu$C charge moving with velocity $\vec{v} = \left(\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}\right)$ m/s in the region of magnetic field $\vec{B} = \left(2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} - 5\hat{k}\right)$ T. The magnitude of force acting on it is $\sqrt{\alpha} \times 10^{-6}$ N. The value of $\alpha$ is _______.
A charged particle moves in a uniform magnetic field. If the velocity is perpendicular to the field, the path of the particle is:
Three identical coils $C_{1}, C_{2}$ and $C_{3}$ are closely placed such that they share a common axis. $C_{2}$ is exactly midway. $C_{1}$ carries current $I$ in anti-clockwise direction while $C_{3}$ carries current $I$ in clockwise direction. An induced current flows through $C_{2}$ will be in clockwise direction when
