A conductor in the form of a right angle ABC with AB = 3 cm and BC = 4 cm carries a current of 10 A. There is a uniform magnetic field of 5 T perpendicular to the plane of the conductor. The force on the conductor will be
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
According to the question figure can be drawn as shown below.
Force on the conductor ABC = Force on the conductor AC
= 5 × × 10 × × (5 × × 10 –2 ) = 2.5 N
