A rectangular current carrying loop placed 2cm away from a long , street, current - carrying conductors. What is the direction and magnitude of the net force acting on the loop .

Answer»

SOLUTION :The LIKE currents i.e current in both the wire are in the same direction attracts each other . Theforce is repulsive when current flows in opposite direction through the wires.
`F = (mu_(0) I_(1)I_(2)DL)/(2 pi r) `
i.e `F alpha 1/r`

As wire of LOOP carrying opposite current is near so the net force acting on the loop is repulsive.
