$ABCD$ is a rectangular loop made of uniform wire. If $AD = BC = 2 \text{ cm}$,what is the magnetic force per unit length acting on wire $DC$ due to wire $AB$ if the ammeter reads $20 \text{ A}$? (The lengths of $AB$ and $DC$ are large in comparison with the other two sides).

  • A
    $10^{-1} \text{ N m}^{-1}$
  • B
    $10^{-2} \text{ N m}^{-1}$
  • C
    $10^{-3} \text{ N m}^{-1}$
  • D
    $10^{-4} \text{ N m}^{-1}$

$A$ current of $10 \ A$ is flowing in two straight parallel wires in the same direction. The force of attraction between them is $1 \times 10^{-3} \ N$. If the current is doubled in both the wires,the force will be:

$A$ straight wire is placed in a magnetic field that varies with distance $x$ from the origin as $\vec{B} = B_0 \left( 2 - \frac{x}{a} \right) \hat{k}$. The ends of the wire are at $(a, 0)$ and $(2a, 0)$ and it carries a current $I$ in the positive $x$-direction. If the force on the wire is $\vec{F} = IB_0 \left( \frac{ka}{2} \right) \hat{j}$, then the value of $k$ is:

What is the net force on the loop shown in the figure?

Two long straight wires $P$ and $Q$ carrying equal current $10\,A$ each were kept parallel to each other at $5\,cm$ distance. Magnitude of magnetic force experienced by $10\,cm$ length of wire $P$ is $F_1$. If distance between wires is halved and currents on them are doubled,force $F_2$ on $10\,cm$ length of wire $P$ will be :
