Q.
A certain electric motor wire that carry a current of 4 amp is perpendicular to a magnetic field of 0.8 T. What is the force on each cm of the wire?
Here: current in the wire I=5 amp Length of the wire = 1cm = 0.01 cm Angle between the wire and magnetic field = 90o Magnetic field B = 0.8 tesla Now, force on each cm of wire =IlBsinθ=5×0.01×0.8sin90o=0.04×1=0.04N
