When a current carrying conductor is placed on a magnetic field, a mechanical force is exerted on the conductor which can make the conductor move.
People also ask, is it possible to orient a current loop in a uniform magnetic field such that the loop does not tend to rotate explain?
Yes. If the magnetic field is directed perpendicular to the plane of the loop, the forces on opposite sides of the loop will be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, but will produce no net torque on the loop.
Also question is, what happens to the force on a current carrying conductor when placed perpendicular in uniform magnetic field has its length doubled?
EXPLANATION: Since magnetic force F = I L B Sin θ is force on the current wire in magnetic field. Here the force is directly proportional to the current flowing in the circuit. If the current flowing in the circuit is doubled then the force on the wire will also double.
What is magnetic force in a uniform magnetic field?
The magnetic force is proportional to q and to the magnitude of the vector cross product v × B. In terms of the angle ϕ between v and B, the magnitude of the force equals qvB sin ϕ. An interesting result of the Lorentz force is the motion of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field.
What is the force on current carrying loop in uniform magnetic field?
The net force on a current-carrying loop of any plane shape in a uniform magnetic field is zero.
Why is the magnetic force on a closed loop zero?
The total force on any closed loop in a uniform magnetic field is zero. Even though each piece of the loop has a force acting on it, the net force on the system is zero.
