One of the two small circular coils (neither having any self-inductance) is suspended with a $V$-shaped copper wire,with its plane horizontal. The other coil is placed just below the first one with its plane horizontal. Both coils are connected in series with a $dc$ supply. The coils are found to attract each other with a force. Which one of the following statements is incorrect?

  • A
    Both the coils carry currents in the same direction.
  • B
    Coils will attract each other,even if the supply is an $ac$ source.
  • C
    Force is proportional to $d^{-1}$.
  • D
    Force is proportional to $d^{-2}$.

$A$ mass spectrometer is a device which selects particles of equal mass. An ion with electric charge $q > 0$ and mass $m$ starts at rest from a source $S$ and is accelerated through a potential difference $V$. It passes through a hole into a region of constant magnetic field $\vec B$ perpendicular to the plane of the paper as shown in the figure. The particle is deflected by the magnetic field and emerges through the bottom hole at a distance $d$ from the top hole. The mass of the particle is:
