Do perpendicular wires have force? If the wires are perpendicular however,
the force between them is 0
.
What is the force between two conductors carrying current placed perpendicular to each other?
What happens when two straight current carrying wires are kept perpendicular to each other? They experience
no any force
because magnetic fields produced by them is perpendicular to each other which are indendent to each other .
Is magnetic force perpendicular?
The magnetic force is always perpendicular to the velocity and to the magnetic field
(since it is given by their cross-product). The direction of the magnetic force depends on the sign of the charge.
What is the force acting on the wire?
Will there be a force on a current carrying wire?
Moving charges experience a force in a magnetic field. If these moving charges are in a wire—that is, if the wire is carrying a current—
the wire should also experience a force
.
Will a pair of parallel current carrying wires exert forces on each other?
Parallel wires carrying currents will exert forces on each other
. One wire sets up a magnetic field that influences the other wire, and vice versa. When the current goes the same way in the two wires, the force is attractive.
What is force between parallel currents?
F/l
is the force per unit length between two parallel currents I1 and I2 separated by a distance r. The force is attractive if the currents are in the same direction and repulsive if they are in opposite directions. This force is responsible for the pinch effect in electric arcs and plasmas.
Is force perpendicular to current and magnetic field?
The magnetic force on a current-carrying wire is perpendicular to both the wire and the magnetic field
with direction given by the right hand rule.
Why is force in magnetic field perpendicular?
The superficial answer is simply that the Lorentz (magnetic) force is proportional to v×B, where v is the particle velocity and B is the magnetic field.
Since the vector cross product is always at right angles to each of the vector factors
, the force is perpendicular to v.
In which direction is the magnetic force oriented?
moving charge is perpendicular to the direction of motion. The direction of the force due to a magnetic field is
perpendicular to the direction of motion
.
What happen when current is perpendicular magnetic field?
When the current is parallel to the magnetic field lines, the force is zero, and when the current is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines,
the force is at a maximum
.
What is the direction of force that is exerted on a current carrying conductor kept perpendicular in external magnetic field?
The direction of the force on a current carrying conductor held perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field is given by
Fleming’s left hand rule
.
When a magnetic field is parallel to a current carrying wire what is the force on the wire?
This is because the magnitude of the force depends on the sin of the angle between the direction of current and the direction of the magnetic field, so if the current-carrying wire is held parallel to the magnetic field, the force will be
zero
.
Why does no force act on a current carrying conductor when it is parallel to the magnetic field?
A straight current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field but no force acts on it. What can be the reason behind this? The conductor is parallel to the magnetic field.
The conductor is perpendicular to the magnetic field
.
What is the direction of force between two parallel wires carrying current in opposite direction?
Solution : Two parallel wires carrying current in opposite directions
repel and try to move away from each other
.
When two parallel wires carry currents in the same direction they are?
If two parallel wires carry current in opposite directions, they repel each other whereas if two parallel wires carry current in same direction, they
attract each other
.
What happens when two parallel wires carry an electric current in the same direction?
Thus, when two parallel wires carry current in the same direction,
they exert equal and opposite attractive forces on each other
.
What happens to the force between two parallel current carrying wires if the distance between them is doubled?
Solution : The force acting on one wire due to currents through two wires is inversely proportional to the distance between them. Thus
the force becomes `1//2` times
if the distance between the wires is doubled.
Why does a current carrying wire experience a magnetic force when the wire is placed perpendicular to the magnetic field?
Why does a wire experience a force in a magnetic field?
When two magnetic fields interact there will be attraction and repulsion between them based on the direction of the external magnetic field and the direction of the current in the conductor
. That is why the conductor experiences a force.
What does direction of magnetic force depend on?
The direction of the force depends on
the relative directions of motion of the charge in each case
. The usual way to go about finding the magnetic force is framed in terms of a fixed amount of charge q moving at constant velocity v in a uniform magnetic field B.

How does magnetic field affect force?
Do magnetic field lines have the same strength?
The strength of the field is proportional to the closeness of the lines
. It is exactly proportional to the number of lines per unit area perpendicular to the lines (called the areal density). Magnetic field lines can never cross, meaning that the field is unique at any point in space.
Is magnetic field perpendicular to velocity?
The magnetic force is perpendicular to the velocity
, so velocity changes in direction but not magnitude. The result is uniform circular motion. (Note that because the charge is negative, the force is opposite in direction to the prediction of the right-hand rule.)
Why does a current carrying wire has a magnetic field around it?
When a current flows in a wire, it creates a circular magnetic field around the wire. This magnetic field
can deflect the needle of a magnetic compass
. The strength of the magnetic field is greater closer to the wire, and increases if the current increases.
What is the direction of the force on a wire if the current’s direction is to the right?
The magnetic field exerts a force on a current-carrying wire in a direction given by the right hand rule 1 (
the same direction as that on the individual moving charges
).
When a conductor is placed in force is exerted on it?
When a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, a mechanical force is exerted on the conductor which
can make the conductor move
.
What is the direction of force acting on the conductor?
What is the direction of the force in current carrying wire as shown in the figure?
When there is no force on a current carrying conductor?
No force acts on a current carrying conductor
when it is parallel to the magnetic field
.
Which situation a current carrying conductor does not experience any force in uniform magnetic field?
What is the nature of force between two conductors having current in the same direction?
The force between the two parallel conductors is
attractive in nature
if the current is flowing in same direction in both the conductors whereas the force is repulsive if the current is flowing in opposite direction in the conductors.
What happens when two parallel conductors carrying currents in same direction?
Thus, when two parallel wires carry current in the same direction,
they exert equal and opposite attractive forces on each other
.
What is the direction of force between two parallel wires carrying current in opposite direction?
Solution : Two parallel wires carrying current in opposite directions
repel and try to move away from each other
.
Why two parallel wires carrying current in the same direction attract each other?
Solution : Two parallel wires carrying currents in the same direction attract each other
due to magnetic interaction between two wires carrying currents
because the current in a wire produces a magnetic field and the magnetic interaction is of attractive nature when current in the two parallel wires is in the same …
