$A$ and $B$ are two infinitely long straight parallel conductors. $C$ is another straight conductor of length $1 \, m$ kept parallel to $A$ and $B$ as shown in the figure. Then the force experienced by $C$ is

  • A
    towards $A$ equal to $0.6 \times 10^{-5} \, N$
  • B
    towards $B$ equal to $5.4 \times 10^{-5} \, N$
  • C
    towards $A$ equal to $5.4 \times 10^{-5} \, N$
  • D
    towards $B$ equal to $0.6 \times 10^{-5} \, N$

The magnetic force on a current-carrying wire in an external uniform magnetic field depends on:

In the figure,the cube has an edge length of $40\,cm$. Four straight segments of wire $ab$,$bc$,$cd$,and $da$ form a closed loop that carries a current $I = 5\,A$. $A$ uniform magnetic field of $0.02\,T$ is in the $+y$-direction. The ratio of the magnetic force on segment $ab$ to the magnetic force on segment $bc$ is:

Two parallel conductors, each $50 \ m$ long, separated by $0.2 \ m$, experience a force of $1 \ N$. If the current in the first conductor is twice that of the second conductor, what is the current in the second conductor (in $A$)? (Given: $\mu_0 = 4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \ T \cdot m/A$)

$A$ straight wire is placed in a magnetic field that varies with distance $x$ from the origin as $\vec{B} = B_0 \left( 2 - \frac{x}{a} \right) \hat{k}$. The ends of the wire are at $(a, 0)$ and $(2a, 0)$ and it carries a current $I$ in the positive $x$-direction. If the force on the wire is $\vec{F} = IB_0 \left( \frac{ka}{2} \right) \hat{j}$, then the value of $k$ is:
