Magnetic field due to currentHard
Question
A semi circular current carrying wire having radius R is placed in x-y plane with its centre at origin ′O′. There is non-uniform magnetic field 
= 
(here B0 is + ve constant) is existing in the region. The magnetic force acting on semi circular wire will be along
= (here B0 is + ve constant) is existing in the region. The magnetic force acting on semi circular wire will be alongOptions
A.-x axis
B.+ y-axis
C.-y axis
D.+ x-axis
Solution
Since 
depends on x -coordinate the net force acts along - x axis.
depends on x -coordinate the net force acts along - x axis.Create a free account to view solution
