    $0.65$
  • B
    $0.92$

$A$ current-carrying rectangular loop $PQRS$ is made of uniform wire. The lengths are $PR = QS = 5\,cm$ and $PQ = RS = 100\,cm$. If the ammeter current reading changes from $I$ to $2I$,the ratio of magnetic forces per unit length on the wire $PQ$ due to wire $RS$ in the two cases respectively,$f_{PQ}^{I} : f_{PQ}^{2I}$,is:

Currents of $10\, A$ and $2\, A$ are passed through two parallel thin wires $A$ and $B$ respectively in opposite directions. Wire $A$ is infinitely long and the length of wire $B$ is $2\, m$. The force acting on the conductor $B$,which is situated at a distance of $10\, cm$ from $A$,will be:
