Correct option is A
The correct answer is: (A). Zero
The force acting on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field is given by the formula:
Where:
- F is the force,
- B is the magnetic field strength,
- I is the current,
- L is the length of the conductor,
- θ is the angle between the magnetic field and the direction of current.
When the angle (θ) between the current direction and the magnetic field is zero, this means the current is flowing parallel to the magnetic field. In this case, sin(0°) = 0, so the force will be:
Therefore, the force acting on the conductor is zero.
