Physics-Magnetic Force on Current

NEET Physics Magnetic Force on Current Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 12

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.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true, but R is false.

D

A is false.

Correct Answer

Option A

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.
