a. A stationary charge is place in a magnetic field. Will it experience a force? Give reason to justify your answer.
b. On what factors does the direction of force experienced by a conductor when placed in a magnetic field depend?
c. Under what conditions is the force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a uniform magnetic field maximum?
d. under what conditions is the force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a uniform magnetic field maximum?
a. A magnetic field exerts force only on moving charges. So, a stationary charge kept in a magnetic field does not experience any force until it starts moving.
b. The direction of force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field depends on:
● the direction of the current in the conductor
● direction of the magnetic field applied
c. The force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a uniform magnetic field is maximum when the current makes right angle with the magnetic field.
d. The force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a uniform magnetic field is maximum when the current makes right angle with the magnetic field.
