JIPMER2017PhysicsMagnetic Effects of Current
A long straight wire is carrying current I in +z direction. The x-y plane contains a closed circular loop carrying current I₂ and not encircling the straight wire. The force on the loop will be
Options
- A₀ /₁ /₀ / 2
- B₀ I₁ I₂ / 4
- Czero
- Ddepends on the distance of the centre of the loop from the wire
Correct answer
D. depends on the distance of the centre of the loop from the wire
Step-by-step solution
Situation is shown in the figure given below Thus, the force depends on the distance of the centre of the loop from the wire.
