A square loop ABCD carrying a current , is placed near and coplanar with a long straight conductor XY carrying a current , the net force on the loop will be


- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
Force on arm AB due to current in conductor XY is
acting towards XY in the plane of loop.
Force on arm CD due to current in conductor XY is
acting away from XY in the plane of loop.
Net force on the loop = F1 – F2
