A 10 cm long wire lies along y-axis. It carries a current of 1.0 A in positive y-direction. A magnetic field \(\vec{B}=(5 \mathrm{mT}) \hat{j}-(8 \mathrm{mT}) \hat{k}\) exists in the region. The force on the wire is:

  1. \((0.8 \mathrm{mN}) \hat{\mathrm{i}}\)
  2. \(-(0.8 \mathrm{mN}) \hat{\mathrm{i}}\)
  3. \((80 \mathrm{mN}) \hat{\mathrm{i}}\)
  4. \(-(80 \mathrm{mN}) \hat{\mathrm{i}}\)

Answer

(B) -(0.8 mN ) i
