    The resultant force on the current loop PQRS due to a long current carrying conductor will be

    A) \[{{10}^{-4}}N\]

    B)  \[3.6\times {{10}^{-4}}N\]

    C) \[1.8\times {{10}^{-4}}N\]   

    D)  \[5\times {{10}^{-4}}N\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Force on SR and PQ, are equal but opposite so their net will be zero. Force between two parallel conductors carrying currents \[{{I}_{1}}\] and \[{{I}_{2}}\]\[F=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{2\pi }\frac{{{I}_{1}}{{I}_{2}}l}{r}\]where r = distance between two parallel conductors \[{{F}_{PS}}=\frac{{{10}^{-7}}\times 2\times 20\times 20\times 15\times {{10}^{-2}}}{2\times {{10}^{-2}}}\] \[=6\times {{10}^{-4}}N\] \[{{F}_{QR}}=\frac{{{10}^{-7}}\times 2\times 20\times 20\times 15\times {{10}^{-2}}}{2\times {{10}^{-2}}}\] \[=1\times {{10}^{-4}}N\] \[{{F}_{net}}={{F}_{PS}}-{{F}_{QR}}\] \[=6\times {{10}^{-4}}-1\times {{10}^{-4}}=5\times {{10}^{-4}}N\]
