A conductor of length L has current I passing through it, when it is placed parallel to a magnetic field. The force experienced by the conductor will be______________?
Correct answer: A. zero
- A. zero
- B. BLI
- C. B2LI
- D. BLI2
Explanation
The force on a conductor is F = BIL sin θ, where θ is the angle between the conductor current and the magnetic field. For parallel placement, θ = 0°, so sin 0° = 0 and the force is zero.
