JEE Main2009PhysicsMagnetic Effects of CurrentActual
Due to the presence of the current l ₁ at the origin
Options
- AThe forces on A B and D C are zero
- BThe forces on A D and B C are zero
- CThe magnitude of the net force on the loop is given by ₀ I₁ 4 [2(b-a)+ 3 (a+b) ]
- DThe magnitude of the net force on the loop is given by ₀ |₁ 24 a b (b-a)
Correct answer
B. The forces on A D and B C are zero
Step-by-step solution
The forces on A D and B C are zero because magnetic field due to a straight wire on A D and B C is parallel to elementary length of the loop.
