A straight horizontal conducting rod of length $0.45\; m$ and mass $60\; g$ is suspended by two vertical wires at its ends. A current of $5.0 \;A$ is set up in the rod through the wires.

$(a)$ What magnetic field should be set up normal to the conductor in order that the tension in the wires is zero?

$(b)$ What will be the total tension in the wires if the direction of current is reversed keeping the magnetic field same as before? (Ignore the mass of the wires.) $g = 9.8\; m s^{-2}.$

A horizontal metallic rod of mass $'m'$ and length $'l'$ is supported by two vertical identical springs of spring of spring constant $'K'$ each and natural length $l_0.$  A current $'i'$ is flowing in the rod in the direction shown. If the rod is in equilibrium then the length of each spring in this state is :-
