Three long,straight parallel wires carrying current are arranged as shown in the figure. The force experienced by a $25\, cm$ length of wire $C$ is

$A$ conducting loop carrying a current $I$ is placed in a uniform magnetic field pointing into the plane of the paper as shown. The loop will have a tendency to

Two long parallel wires are at a distance of $1 \ m$. Both of them carry $1 \ A$ of current. The force of attraction per unit length between the two wires is

$A$ wire carrying current $I$ is tied between points $P$ and $Q$ and is in the shape of a circular arc of radius $R$ due to a uniform magnetic field $B$ (perpendicular to the plane of the paper,shown by $\times \times \times $) in the vicinity of the wire. If the wire subtends an angle $2\theta_0$ at the centre of the circle (of which it forms an arc),then the tension in the wire is:
