i)
Name the rule which can be used to predict the direction of the force perpendicular to a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field.
[1]
ii)
A student places four wires of different lengths (A, B, C and D) perpendicular to different magnetic fields with different currents flowing.
Look at the table of the results.
Use the results to show that wire D experiences the highest force.
Show your working.
Look at the table of the results.
| Wire |
Magnetic flux density (T) |
Current (A) | Length (m) |
| A | 0.10 | 2.5 | 0.50 |
| B | 0.15 | 2.0 | 0.75 |
| C | 0.20 | 4.5 | 0.25 |
| D | 0.25 | 5.0 | 1.00 |
