JEE Advanced | 2015Magnetic field due to currentHard
Question
A conductor (shown in the figure) carrying constant current I is kept in the x-y plane in a unfirom magnetic field
. If F is the magnitude of the total magnetic force acting on the conductor, then the correct statement(s) is (are)


Options
A.If
is along
, F ∝ (L + R)
B.If
is along
, F = 0
C.If
is along
, F ∝ (L + R)
D.If
is along
, F = 0
Solution
as magnetic field is uniform
When B is along y or z axis
F ∝ (L + R)
When B is along x-axis
F = 0
∴ (A,B,C)
