Question
A uniform conducting wire ABC has a mass of 10g. A current of 2A flows through it. The wire is kept in a uniform magnetic field The acceleration of the wire will be
- Zero
- along y-axis
- along y-axis
- along – axis
The correct answer is: along y-axis
The given curved wire can be treated as a straight wire as shown
