Electromagnetic Induction: The Exact Questions RBSE Keeps Asking (Chapter 6)

If you have gone through the last decade of RBSE Class 12 Physics papers, you will notice Chapter 6 (Electromagnetic Induction) is tested every year without fail. It belongs to Unit IV — Electromagnetic Induction and Alternating Currents and is drawn from a pool of 22 previous-year questions spanning 2013–2026, spread across MCQs, very short, short and long-answer sections. The topics rotate, but the question patterns stay remarkably steady.

Expect a quick 1-mark opener asking you to state Faraday's or Lenz's law, or define magnetic flux. The 1.5 to 2-mark questions lean on motional emf numericals and mutual inductance of concentric coils. The heavy marks sit in the 4-mark long answer, which almost always asks you to derive the induced emf in a rod rotating in a uniform magnetic field.

So the smart way to revise this chapter is not to read it end to end, but to practise the questions RBSE actually repeats. The five questions above — and the ten in the free sample PDF — are taken straight from real board papers and tagged with the exact years they appeared, so you can see for yourself what the full RBSE Physics chapterwise PYQ book offers before you decide to buy it.
