is a rectangular loop made of uniform wire. If
, what is the magnetic force per unit length acting on wire
due to wire
, if ammeter reads
? (The length of
and
are large in comparison with other two sides)

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Given,


As resistance of both
and
is same and current in main branch is
, then current in separate branches, is
. We will assume
and
an infinite wire As we know that,

where,
is force per unit length.
