FORCE ON CURRENT CARRYING CONDUCTOR IN MAGNETIC FIELD

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

A current -carrying wire does not develop any net charge because the number of electrons leaving one end is same as the number of electrons entering from the other end. So a conductor remains neutral when electric current is flowing through it. Hence the current -carrying conductor does not produce electric field in its surrounding space.
