Questions  

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

a
1.5 N
b
2.0 N
c
2.5 N
d
3.5 N

detailed solution

Correct option 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
