Answer the following questions for a case in which a current carrying conductor is placed in a uniform magnetic field : When is the magnitude of force on the conductor maximum ?
Explanation
The magnitude of force on the conductor is maximum when the angle between the conductor and the magnetic field is 90 degrees. This is because the force on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field is given by F = BIL sinθ, where θ is the angle between the conductor and the magnetic field. When θ = 90 degrees, sinθ = 1, and hence the force is maximum.
