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

UNIFORM CIRCULAR MOTION

In uniform circular motion,  1. Speed is constant. 2. Velocity is variable and acts along tangential direction  at a point. 3. Centripetal Force and acceleration act along the radius towards the centre if the circular path.  4. Centrifugal force appears to  act radially outwards. It is a virtual  ,fictitious force, not a real force.

ECHO IN LIVING ROOM

Why is echo not heard in our living rooms? To hear echo, the minimum distance between the source and the reflector must be 17m. When this distance is more than 17m, the reflected sound can be distinguished from the original. As the length of our rooms is less than 17m, we don't hear echo.
