To Determine: - Current ina straight wire of length 4.80 m if maximum force exerts on it is 0.625 N when placed in a uniform magnetic field of 0.0800 T.
Solution:-Current in straight wire = 1.62 A
Explanation of Solution
Explanation:-
Given:-
Length = 4.80 m;
Magnetic field, B = 0.0800 T
Maximum force=
Formula Used:-
Calculation:- To find the value of the current, we have to use the equation,
Calculation ofthe current equation becomes, (since force is maximum)
=
=
Conclusion: - Any current-carrying conductor when placed in the magnetic field, experiences a force that can be derived by the formula
Its direction can also be found by using Fleming’s Left-hand rule.
