Two thin long parallel wires separated by a distance $b$ are carrying a current $i$ $A$ each. The magnitude of the force per unit length exerted by one wire on the other is

  • A
    $\frac{\mu_0 i^2}{b^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\mu_0 i^2}{2\pi b}$
  • C
    $\frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi b}$
  • D
    $\frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi b^2}$

$A$ wire carrying a current $i$ is placed in a uniform magnetic field $B$ in the form of the curve $y = a \sin \left( \frac{\pi x}{L} \right)$,where $0 \leq x \leq 2L$. The magnetic force on the wire is

The force between two long parallel wires is $F$ when each one of them carries a certain current $I$. If the current in each is halved,the force between them would be . . . . . . .

$A$ massless square loop of wire with resistance $10\,\Omega$ supports a mass of $1\,g$. It hangs vertically with one of its sides in a uniform magnetic field of $10^3\,G$,directed outwards in the shaded region. $A$ $DC$ voltage $V$ is applied to the loop. For what value of $V$ will the magnetic force exactly balance the weight of the supporting mass of $1\,g$? (Given: side length of the loop $= 10\,cm$,$g = 10\,m/s^2$)

As shown in the figure, a wire is bent to form a $D$-shaped loop carrying current $I$, where the curved part is a semi-circle of radius $R$. The loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field $\overrightarrow{B}$, which is directed into the plane of the paper. The net magnetic force on the closed loop is:
