NEET 2023 Physics Magnetic Force MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12
A wire carrying a current I along the positive x-axis has length L. It is kept in a magnetic field B→ = (2î + 3ĵ − 4k̂) T. The magnitude of the magnetic force acting on the wire is:
A
√5 IL
B
5 IL
C
√3 IL
D
3 IL

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

The magnetic force on a current-carrying wire is given by F=I(L×B)\mathbf{F} = I(\mathbf{L} \times \mathbf{B}). Calculate the cross product and find the magnitude of the force.
