Question

What is the net force on the coil

A

moving towards wire

B

moving away from wire

C

moving towards wire

D

moving away from wire

Answer

moving towards wire

Explanation

Solution

Force on sides BC and CD cancel each other.

Force on side AB

Force on

side CD

Hence net force on loop = F_AB – F_CD = 25 × 10^–7 N (towards the wire).
