Magnetic Effects Of Current Question 189

Question: A conductor in the form of a right angle ABC with AB = 3 cm and BC = 4 cm carries a current of 10 A. There is a uniform magnetic field of 5 T perpendicular to the plane of the conductor. The force on the conductor will be [MP PMT 1997]

Options:

A) 1.5 N

B) 2.0 N

C) 2.5 N

D) 3.5 N

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

According to the question figure can be drawn as shown below. Force on the conductor ABC = Force on the conductor AC = 5 ยด 10 ยด (5 ยด 10?2) = 2.5 N
