Question

wire length 2.5m, current 1.3A, inclined at angle θ to B=0.4T, force 0.92N. Find θ.
Options
A 15°
B 30°
C 45°
Correct Answer
D 55°
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

F = BIL sinθ → sinθ = F/(BIL) = 0.92/(0.4×1.3×2.5) = 0.92/1.3 = 0.7077 → θ = 45°.

Hint

sinθ = F/(BIL).
