Q.

The horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field at a place is 3.5×10-5T. A very long straight conductor carrying a current of 2A in the direction from South-East to North-West is placed. The force per unit length experienced by the conductor is ______ ×10-6N/m.         [2024]

F=IBsinθ

F=IBsinθ=2×3.5×10-5×sin45°

=2×3.5×10-5×12

=3.5×10-5=35×10-6 N/m
