A current-carrying wire of length L in magnetic field B experiences force:
ABIL
BBIL sin theta
CB²IL
DBI/L
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. BIL sin theta
F = IL × B (vector form). Magnitude F = BIL sin theta where theta is angle between current direction and B. Maximum when perpendicular (theta = 90 degrees).
