    A circular coil PQRSP is placed in a uniform magnetic field. When a current flows through the coil, the force on the segment PQ is F. The force on the remaining segment QRSP is

    A)  3F                                         

    B)  -3F                        

    C)  F                            

    D)         -F

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    A circular coil \[PQRSP\]  is placed in a uniform magnetic field. When a current flows through the coil, the force on segment \[PQ\] is \[\mathbf{F}\] then the force on the remaining segment \[QRSP\] is\[-\mathbf{F}\]. Aliter \[\because \]     \[{{F}_{\operatorname{close}\,\,loop}}=0\]                 \[{{\mathbf{F}}_{PQ}}+{{\mathbf{F}}_{QRSP}}=0\]                 \[{{\mathbf{F}}_{QRSP}}=-\mathbf{F}\]
