A current of 5 ampere is flowing in a wire of length 1.5 metres. A force of `7.5 N` acts on it when it is placed in a uniform magnetic field of 2 Tesla. The angle between the magnetic field and the direction of the current is

A

`30^(@)`

B

`45^(@)`

C

`60^(@)`

D

`90^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`F = I l B sin theta implies sin theta = (7.5)/(5 xx 1.5 xx 2) = 0.5 = theta = 30^(@)`
