Find the force acting on a current carrying conductor placed in an uniform magnetic field.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`F = Bil sin theta`
where F = Force acting on the conductor
B = Magnetic field in which conductor is placed
l = length of the conductor
`theta =` angle between the conductor and magnetic field
I = Current flowing through the conductor
