In figure, a long wire AB is placed on a table. A wire CD 10cm long, is just above AB. It can slide up and down on two vertical wires. If the wires carry a current of 20A , then how much above AB, will the wire CD settle? The mass of the wire CD is 0*50 gram.

A straight long wire carrying current 50 A is placed on a horizontal surface. Another wire of unit length carrying 22 A current is balanced in air above at a distance of 0.5 cm from the long wire. Calculate the mass of the wire.

A copper wire of length 1 m and radius is joined in series with an iron wire of length 2 m and radius 3 mm and a current is passed through the wire. The ratio of the current density in the copper and iron wires is

A silver wire of length 2m and radius 1mm is joined in series with an iron wire of length "4m" and radius "3mm" and a current is passed through the wires. The ratio of the current density in the silver and iron wires is

A long straight wire carrying current of 30 A rests on a table. Another wire AB of length 1 m, mass 3 g carries the same current but in the opposite direction, the wire AB is free to slide up and down. The height upto which AB will rise is

Two long and parallel wires are at a distance of 0.1m and a current of 5 A is flowing in each of these wires. The force per unit length due to these wires will be
