Why is force applied on a current-carrying conductor in an external magnetic field? Write its formula. What are the different factors on which this force depends? State the rule by which the direction of this force can be found.
The force applied on a current-carrying conductor in an external magnetic field arises due to the interaction between the magnetic field and the moving charged particles (electrons) in the conductor. When a current flows through a conductor, the electrons experience a force due to the magnetic field, which results in a net force on the … Read more
