The force exerted by a magnetic field on a wire having length $L$ and current $I$ is perpendicular to the wire and given as $\left| F \right| = IL\left| B \right|$ . An experimental plot shows $(\vec F)$ as function of $L$ . The plot is a straight line with a slope $S = \left( {10 \pm 1} \right) \times {10^{ - 5}}\ AT$. The current in the wire is $\left( {15 \pm 1} \right)\ mA$ . The percentage error in $B$ is

  • A

    $\frac{{50}}{3}\% $

  • B

    $\frac{{20}}{3}\% $

  • C

    $\frac{{40}}{3}\% $

  • D

    $12\%$
