(N/A) Electromagnets are used in various devices due to their ability to turn magnetism on and off. Common uses include:
$1$. Electric bells: Used to create the ringing sound.
$2$. Loudspeakers: Used to convert electrical signals into sound waves.
$3$. Telephones: Used in the diaphragms to convert electrical signals into sound.
$4$. Cranes: Used in industrial settings to lift and move heavy magnetic materials like iron and steel.

$A, B$ and $C$ are three parallel conductors of equal lengths carrying currents $I, I$ and $2I$ respectively. The distance between $A$ and $B$ is $x$ and that between $B$ and $C$ is also $x$. $F_1$ is the force exerted by conductor $B$ on $A$. $F_2$ is the force exerted by conductor $C$ on $A$. The current $I$ in $A$ and $I$ in $B$ are in the same direction,and the current $2I$ in $C$ is in the opposite direction. Then:

$A$ $3.0 \; cm$ wire carrying a current of $10 \; A$ is placed inside a solenoid perpendicular to its axis. The magnetic field inside the solenoid is given to be $0.27 \; T$. What is the magnetic force on the wire?

Currents of $10 \ A$ and $2 \ A$ are passed through two parallel wires $A$ and $B$ respectively in opposite directions. If the wire $A$ is infinitely long and the length of the 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 . . . . . . .
