MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

The magnetic field of the earth can be modelled by that of a point dipole placed at the centre of the earth. The dipole axis makes an angle of $11.3^{\circ}$ with the axis of the earth. At Mumbai, declination is nearly zero. Then,

A
the declination varies between $11.3^{\circ} \mathrm{W}$ to $11.3^{\circ} \mathrm{E}$
B
the least declination is $0^{\circ}$
C
the plane defined by dipole axis and the earth axis passes through Greenwich
D
declination averaged over the earth must be always negative

MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

Consider the two idealised systems (i) a parallel plate capacitor with large plates and small separation and (ii) a long solenoid of length $L \gg R$, radius of cross-section. In (i) $\mathbf{E}$ is ideally treated as a constant between plates and zero outside. In (ii) magnetic field is constant inside the solenoid and zero outside. These idealised assumptions, however, contradict fundamental laws as below

A
case (i) contradicts Gauss' law for electrostatic fields
B
case (ii) contradicts Gauss' law for magnetic fields
C
case (i) agrees with $\oint \mathrm{E} . \mathrm{dl}=0$.
D
case (ii) contradicts $\oint \mathrm{H} \cdot \mathrm{dl}=I_{\mathrm{en}}$

A
$\frac{32}{3} \mathrm{Am}^{-1}$
B
$\frac{2}{3} \mathrm{Am}^{-1}$
