The figure shows a long straight wire carrying a current `I_1` along the axis of a circular ring carrying a current I_2`. Identify the correct statement.

A

Straight wire attracts the ring

B

Straight wire attracts a small element of the ring

C

Straight wire does not attract any small element of the ring

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`I_1` produce circular magnetic lines current `I_2` is each small circular element is parallel to `(theta=0^@)` magnetic field. Hence, force is zero.
