What is the net force on the square coil?

What is the net force on the square coil?

  1. 25×10-7 N moving towards wire
  2. 25×10-7 N moving away from wire
  3. 35×10-7 N moving towards wire
  4. 35×10-7 N moving away from wire

Solution

Force due to straight wire on the current-carrying coil is, F=FAB+FBC+FCD+FAD

FBC and FAD are equal and opposite therefore will cancel each other effect

FAB=μ02 A1 A15×10-2 m2π2×10-2 m

FCD=-μ02 A1 A15×10-2 m2π0.12 m

Net force on the square coil ABCD is, F=μ02 A1 A15×10-2 m2π2×10-2 m-μ02 A1 A15×10-2 m2π0.12 mF=25×10-7 N
