    A straight wire of mass 300 g and length 2.5m carries a current of 3.5 A. It is suspended in mid-air by a uniform horizontal magnetic field B. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field?

    A)  0.654 T

    B)  0.336 T

    C)  1.576 T

    D)  0.939 T

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Here weight of the wire is balanced by the extended magnetic force. So,          \[Bil=mg\] \[B=\frac{mg}{il}\] \[=\frac{300\times {{10}^{-3}}\times 10}{3.5\times 2.5}=0.34\,T\]
