FORCE ON CURRENT CARRIYING CONDUCTOR

 Q: Why does a current carrying conductor placed in an magnetic field experiences force ?

Ans: Moving charges experience force in magnetic field. So when a current carrying conductor is placed in the magnetic field,it experiences force due to the force on moving charges inside it.

The formula F=IBLsin@, I= Current,  B =external magnetic field 

L is the length of conductor inside the magnetic field.

MAXIMUM FORCE

When the  conductor is placed perpendicular to the magnetic field.


MINIMUM FORCE

When the conductor is placed parallel to the magnetic fields

MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE , VELOCITY RATIO

Which is always constant for a machine of given design: MA or VR ? Ans: VR remains constant for a machine of given design as it depends on the distances moved by the load and effort but MA can vary due to the friction developed between the moving parts of the machine.

What is Regelation?

The melting point of ice is 0°C at normal pressure but when you increase the pressure on ice it melts at the temperature below 0°C( i.e. melting point of ice decreases with pressure). When the pressure applied is released then water formed from ice starts freezing. This phenomenon is called REGELATION.
