A thin and infinitely long metal sheet of appreciable finite width b carrying current I (distributed uniformly through out of its cross section) parallel to its length is placed in an external magnetic field parallel to its plane and perpendicular to the direction of current
Options
- AThe thin metal sheet experiences a mechanical pressure perpendicular to its face.
- BThe direction of the pressure does not change if the direction of current is reversed.
- CIn case the external magnetic field is switched off, a magnetic field is observed parallel to the plane of the sheet but perpendicular to the direction current.
- DThe magnetic field produced in part (c) is \mathrm{B}=\frac{2 \mu_0\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{b}}
Correct answer
C. In case the external magnetic field is switched off, a magnetic field is observed parallel to the plane of the sheet but perpendicular to the direction current.
