Practice question

**Force on current-carrying wire** in magnetic field is F = I l × B, magnitude F = I l B sinθ, I current (A), l length (m), B field (T), θ angle between current direction and B. Direction perpendicular to plane containing wire and B, given by Fleming's left-hand rule. f = (μ₀ I₁ I₂/2 π d) . f = (4 π × 10⁻⁷ × 5 × 5/2 π × 0.02) = (100 × 10⁻⁷/0.04) = 2.5 × 10⁻⁵ N/m . Using F = q v B sinθ, F = I l B sinθ, B = μ₀ I/(2π r), B = μ₀ N I/(2R) and
