A conducting wire of length 0.1 m and mass \( 3 \times 10^{-3} \text{ kg} \), carrying a current of 5 A is suspended freely in a horizontal direction in a uniform magnetic field. The magnitude of magnetic field perpendicular to the length of conductor is:

  1. A 0.06 T
  2. B 16.6 T
  3. C 0.6 T
  4. D 0.4 T
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 0.06 T

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( BIL = mg \) \( B = \frac{mg}{IL} \) \( B = \frac{(3 \times 10^{-3})(9.8)}{(5)(0.1)} \) \( B = 0.0588 \text{ T} \approx 0.06 \text{ T} \)
