FORCE ON A MOVING CHARGE IN MAGNETIC FIELD
a) b) A magnetic field is associated only with moving charges & not static. Force on a moving charge in uniform magnetic field is given by, FB q v B magnitude of force is FB = Bqv sin LORENTZ FORCE When a charge enters into a region where there are both electric and magnetic fields,

FE Fm = q[ E ( v x B)]

MAGNETIC FORCE ON A STRAIGHT CURRENT CARRYING CONDUCTOR

Force on a straight conductor carrying current in magnetic field is F i( l x B) , Magnitude of the force F = Bil sin Flemings left hand rule : Stretch the fore-finger, central finger and thumb of left hand central finger in the direction of current ( B ), then thumb will point in the direction of force of direction of motion.

Biot-Savarts law :-

Biot-Savart's law is used to determine the magnetic field at any point due to a current carrying conductor and given as, 0 id i r B= 4 r3 Here id current element.

The line integral of B d around any closed path equals 0I, where I is the total continuous current {steady current} passing through any surface bounded by the closed path. B d 0I (mathematically)

number of turns per unit length) FORCE BETWEEN TWO PARALLEL CURRENT CARRYING CONDUCTORS When the currents in both the wires are in the same direction, then mutual force between the wires is attractive. When the currents in the wires are in opposite directions, the mutual force between the wires is repulsive. 0 i1i2 Mutual force between the wires is F 2 r Note :- l is the length of the wire that experiences the force.

When a coil current carrying is placed in a uniform external magnetic field, the net force on it is always zero. Here different parts experience forces in different directions so that the loop may experience a torque or couple. A rectangular coil of area A having N turns and carrying current i is placed in a uniform external magnetic field of induction B . If b is the angle between the normal to the plane of the coil and the magnetic field, then torque acting on the coil is .
