A long straight wire carries a current of 20 A20 \mathrm{~A}. The maximum force experienced by an electron moving at a speed of 100 km/s100 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{s}, at a distance of 6.4 cm6.4 \mathrm{~cm} from the wire is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
10−18 N10^{-18} \mathrm{~N}
Option B (10−19 N10^{-19} \mathrm{~N}) is correct because it is the maximum force calculated using the magnetic field due to the wire and the Lorentz force on the electron.
