Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force exerted on a wire that is 20 mmmm long and carries a current of 4.0 AA when it is suspended inside a solenoid at an angle of 45∘∘ to the magnetic field. The solenoid has 800 turns per meter of length and carries a current of 2.0 AA .

Answer:


1.14* 10^(-4)N

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Length of wire,L=20 mm=
20* 10^(-3) m


1mm=10^(-3) m

Current,I=4 A


\theta=45^(\circ)

Number of turns per unit length,n=800

Current,i=2 A

Magnetic field of solenoid,B=
\mu_0ni=4\pi* 10^(-7)* 800* 2=2.01* 10^(-3) T

Where
\mu_0=4\pi* 10^(-7)

Magnetic force,F=
IBLsin\theta

Using the formula


F=4* 2.01* 10^(-3)* 20* 10^(-3)sin45


F=1.14* 10^(-4)N
