A long wire A carries a current of 10 A. Another long wire B, which is parallel to A and separated by 0.1 m from A, carries a current of 5 A, in the opposite direction to that in A. What is the magnitude and nature of the force experienced per unit length of B?
1. | Repulsive force of \(10^{-4} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\) |
2. | Attractive force of \(10^{-4} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\) |
3. | Repulsive force of \(2 \pi \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\) |
4. | Attractive force of \(2 \pi \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\) |
What will happen if two thin, long parallel wires separated by a distance "d" carry current "i" in the same direction?
1. | attract each other with a force per unit length of |
2. | repel each other with a force per unit length of |
3. | attract each other with a force per unit length of |
4. | repel each other with a force per unit length of |
A rectangular loop carrying a current \(\mathrm{I_1}\), is situated near a long straight wire carrying a steady current \(\mathrm{I_2}\).
If the wire is parallel to one of the sides of the loop and is in the plane of the loop as shown in the figure, then the current loop will:
1. | move away from the wire. |
2. | move towards the wire. |
3. | remain stationary. |
4. | rotate about an axis parallel to the wire. |
