Questions  

The wire RS is fixed, but PQ is free to move. The wire PQ will have

a
Translation only
b
Rotation only
c
Both translation and rotation
d
Neither translation nor rotation

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Magnetic field produced by I1 is μ0I12πr and force experience by I2 is I2lB but B is changing along the wire as it depends on the distance fromI1. So force experience by I2 has different magnitude at different point. So it will have a translational as well as a rotational motion also and it will have a clockwise rotation and simultaneously moves up.
