TS EAMCET · Physics · Magnetic Effects of Current

A straight wire of mass \(0.2 \mathrm{~kg}\) and length \(1.5 \mathrm{~m}\) carries a current \(2 \mathrm{~A}\) is shown in the figure. It is suspended in mid-air by a uniform magnetic field \(B\) pointing to the plane of paper. The magnitude of magnetic field is (ignore, earth's magnetic field and assume \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\) )

  1. A \(0.55 \mathrm{~T}\)
  2. B \(0.67 \mathrm{~T}\)
  3. C \(0.75 \mathrm{~T}\)
  4. D \(0.85 \mathrm{~T}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(0.67 \mathrm{~T}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, mass of the wire, \(m=0.2 \mathrm{~kg}\) Length of the wire, \(l=1.5 \mathrm{~m}\) Current, \(I=2 \mathrm{~A}\) The force acting on the current carrying wire in uniform magnetic field, \(=I B l \sin \theta\)…
