(a) Force on side $BC$ and $AD$ are equal but opposite so their net will be zero.
But ${F_{AB}} = {10^{ - 7}} \times \frac{{2 \times 2 \times 1}}{{2 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}} \times 15 \times {10^{ - 2}} = 3 \times {10^{ - 6}}\,N$
and ${F_{CD}} = {10^{ - 7}} \times \frac{{2 \times 2 \times 1}}{{\left( {12 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}} \right)}} \times 15 \times {10^{ - 2}}$$ = 0.5 \times {10^{ - 6}}\,N$
$==>$ $\,{F_{net}} = {F_{AB}} - {F_{CD}}$ $ = 2.5 \times {10^{ - 6}}\,N$
$ = 25 \times {10^{ - 7}}\,N$, towards the wire.

A proton of energy $200\, MeV$ enters the magnetic field of $5\, T$. If direction of field is from south to north and motion is upward, the force acting on it will be
What is the magnitude of magnetic force per unit length on a wire carrying a current of $8\,A$ and making an angle of $30^o$ with the direction of a uniform magnetic field of $0.15\, T$ ?.....$Nm^{-1}$
A current $I$ flows in an infinitely long wire with cross section in the form of a semi-circular ring of radius $R$. The magnitude of the magnetic induction along its axis is:
A straight wire of diameter $0.5\, mm$ carrying a current of $1\, A$ is replaced by another wire of $1\, mm$ diameter carrying the same current. The strength of magnetic field far away is
A galvanometer having a coil resistance of $60\,\,\Omega$ shows full scale deflection when a current of $1.0$ $amp$ passes through it. It can be converted into an ammeter to read currents upto $5.0$ $amp$ by
A magnet of magnetic moment $50 \hat i\, Am^2$ is placed along the $x-$ axis in a magnetic field $\vec B = (0.5\hat i + 3.0\hat j)\,T$. The torque acting on the magnet is
An infinitely long straight conductor is bent into the shape as shown in the figure. It carries a current of $i$ $ampere$ and the radius of the circular loop is $r$ $metre$. Then the magnetic induction at its centre will be
