NEET · Physics · STD 12 - 4. Moving charges and magnetism
An infinitely long straight conductor carries a current of \(5 \,\mathrm{~A}\) as shown. An electron is moving with a speed of \(10^{5} \, \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) parallel to the conductor. The perpendicular distance between the electron and the conductor is \(20 \, \mathrm{~cm}\) at an instant. Calculate the magnitude of the force experienced by the electron at that instant in \(\times 10^{-20} \,N\)
