JEE Main 2026 Current Electricity and Magnetism Practice Questions with Solutions

Check here some of the Current Electricity and Magnetism JEE Main 2026 important questions along with their solutions.

Q1. A 3 µF and 6 µF capacitor are connected in parallel to 12 V. Find total charge.

Solution

Total capacitance C = 3 + 6 = 9 μF

Q = CV = 9 × 10-6 ⋅ 12 = 1.08 × 10-4 C

Answer: 1.08 × 10-4 C

Q2. A current of 2 A flows through a resistor of 5 Ω. Calculate the heat produced in 10 s.

Solution

H = I2Rt = 22 ⋅ 5  ⋅ 10 = 200 J

Answer: 200 J

Q3. A wire of length 2 m and cross-sectional area 1 mm2 has a resistance of 4 Ω. What is the resistivity of the material of the wire?

Solution

Resistance formula: R = ρ L/A

Ρ = R A/L = 4. 1X10-6/2 = 2 X 10-6 Ωm

Answer: 2 X 10-6 Ωm

Dear Student, 

A PCB student can pursue BCA admission at Ambalika Institute of Management and Technology (AIMT), Lucknow, if they have passed Class 12 from a recognized board with at least 45-50% aggregate marks (with possible relaxation for reserved categories) and crucially studied Mathematics as a subject in 10+2, as pure PCB without Maths typically disqualifies candidates for this computer applications program. The process is merit-based, involving online application via the AIMT website, document submission (Class 10/12 marksheets, ID proofs, photos), possible entrance test or interview, fee payment, and final verification. Candidates should verify current-year details directly from the official …

Dear Student, 

Ambalika Institute of Management and Technology (AIMT), often referred to as Ambalika University in Lucknow context, does not offer a BTech in Biomedical Engineering; instead, it provides BTech in Biotechnology (Biological Engineering) and related specializations like BTech Biotech, which typically require PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) in Class 12 with a minimum 45-50% aggregate for eligibility via JEE Main/UPTAC counseling. PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) students generally do not qualify for standard BTech engineering programs at AIMT, as explicit criteria mandate Mathematics alongside Physics and Chemistry, though some biomedical programs elsewhere accept PCB. Ambalika's biotech course follows PCM norms without …
