NEET UG PHYSICS MCQ: MAGNETIC EFFECT OF CURRENT

1 Medium

1 of 1

Application +4 | -1

A straight wire of length of

\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{5}\,\,\mathrm{metre}

and carrying a current of

1.2\,\,ampere

is placed in a uniform magnetic field of induction 2 tesla. If the magnetic field is perpendicular to the length of the wire, the force acting on the wire is

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

1.2 N

Option B (1.2 N) is correct because it is calculated using the formula for the force on a current-carrying wire in a magnetic field.

Which of the following statements is not true A current loop in a magnetic field Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): When currents vary with time, Newton’s third law is valid only if momentum carried by the electromagnetic field is taken into account.
Statement (II): Ampere's circuital law does not depend on Biot-Savart’s law.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below: The magnetic field due to current carrying a circular loop of radius
