Two parallel,long wires are kept $0.20 \, m$ apart in a vacuum,each carrying a current of $x \, A$ in the same direction. If the force of attraction per meter of each wire is $2 \times 10^{-6} \, N$,then the value of $x$ is approximately:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2.4$
  • C
    $1.4$
  • D
    $2$

The circuit in the figure consists of wires at the top and bottom and identical springs as the left and right sides. The wire at the bottom has a mass of $10 \, g$ and is $5 \, cm$ long. The wire is hanging as shown in the figure. The springs stretch $0.5 \, cm$ under the weight of the wire and the circuit has a total resistance of $12 \, \Omega$. When the lower wire is subjected to a static magnetic field,the springs stretch an additional $0.3 \, cm$. The magnetic field is

What is the magnitude of magnetic force per unit length on a wire carrying a current of $8\,A$ and making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the direction of a uniform magnetic field of $0.15\,T$? (in $N\,m^{-1}$)

Three parallel wires $a$, $b$, and $c$ carrying currents $i_a$, $i_b$, and $i_c$ as shown in the figure are placed next to each other. The magnitude of the force on a length $l$ of the wire $a$, if $d_2 = 2 d_1$, $i_b = i_a$, and $i_c = 4 i_a$ is:

Two long conductors separated by a distance $d$ carry currents $I_1$ and $I_2$ in the same direction. They exert a force $F$ on each other. Now,the current in one of them is increased to $2$ times and its direction is reversed. The distance between them is also increased to $3d$. The new value of force between them is:

$A$ $100$ turn rectangular coil $ABCD$ (in $xy$-plane) is hung from one arm of a balance (Figure). $A$ mass of $500 \text{ g}$ is added to the other arm to balance the weight of the coil. $A$ current of $4.9 \text{ A}$ passes through the coil and a constant magnetic field of $0.2 \text{ T}$ acting inward (in $xz$-plane) is switched on such that only arm $CD$ of length $1 \text{ cm}$ lies in the field. How much additional mass '$m$' must be added to regain the balance?
