The magnitude of magnetic force will be maximum on current carrying conductor in uniforrn magnetic field if conductor is placed?
Correct answer: C. Perpendicular to magnetic field
- A. Parallel to magnetic field
- B. At 45 degree in magnetic field
- C. Perpendicular to magnetic field
- D. Antiparallel in magnetic field
Explanation
The correct statement is C. Perpendicular to the magnetic field. To achieve the maximum magnetic force on a current-carrying conductor in a uniform magnetic field, the conductor should be placed perpendicular to the magnetic field lines.

About Electromagnetism
Magnetic flux density and magnetic flux describe the strength of a magnetic field and the field passing through a surface. A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its velocity and may follow circular or helical motion, depending on the angle between velocity and field.
