$A$ current of $1 \ A$ is flowing along the positive $x$-axis through a straight wire of length $0.5 \ m$ placed in a region of a magnetic field given by $\vec{B} = (2\hat{i} + 4\hat{j}) \ T$. The magnitude and the direction of the force experienced by the wire are,respectively:

$A$ current of $10 \text{ A}$ flows through a horizontal straight wire $A$ with both ends rigidly fixed. Wire $B$ is placed directly above and parallel to $A$. The weight per unit length of wire $B$ is $40 \times 10^{-3} \text{ N/m}$ and it carries a current of $20 \text{ A}$. Find the distance of wire $B$ from wire $A$ so that wire $B$ remains at rest. Also,state the direction of current flowing through it.

$A$ $1\, m$ long wire is placed at right angles to a magnetic field. $A$ force of $1\, kg$ wt. acts on it in a magnetic field of $0.98\, T$. The current flowing through the wire is: (in $, A$)

What is the magnitude of magnetic force per unit length (in $N \;m^{-1}$) on a wire carrying a current of $8 \;A$ and making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the direction of a uniform magnetic field of $0.15 \;T$?

$A$ thin flexible wire of length $L$ is connected to two adjacent fixed points and carries a current $I$ in the clockwise direction,as shown in the figure. When the system is put in a uniform magnetic field of strength $B$ going into the plane of the paper,the wire takes the shape of a circle. The tension in the wire is
