NEET Physics Magnetic Force on Current Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): A straight conductor carrying a steady current experiences a force in a uniform magnetic field.
Reason (R): The force experienced by the conductor is given by the expression F = I l × B, where l is the length of the conductor and B is the magnetic field.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The NCERT context states that a straight conductor carrying a steady current experiences a force when placed in a uniform magnetic field, described by the formula F = I l × B.
