When a magnetic field is parallel to a current-carrying wire what is the force on the wire?
Tansari
there is no force on the wire as the magnetic flux density on both sides of the conductor is the same. So, there is no net force on the wire

A magnetic field is described by magnetic lines of?
Lines of Force
When a charge moves in the same direction as the magnetic field lines the magnetic force is?
Perpendicular to both the current and the magnetic field.
Does a compass needle line up perpendicular or parallel to a magnetic field?
A compass needle will align itself with a magnetic field. It will want to lie along the magnetic field lines, or lie parallel to the lines of force of the magnetic field it is interacting with.
What is the invisible force around a magnet called?
Have you ever seen a magnet? Did you see the field? There you go. While you can't see the field itself directly, you can see the effects of the field if you use iron filings or something like that; they'll line up with the magnetic field lines
What is a magnetic force?
A magnet creates a magnetic field, often mistakenly referred to as a magnetic force. The actual force felt by a charged particle in a magnetic field (or electric field) is called the Lorentz force.
What do you mean by uniform and non uniform magnetic fields?
In a uniform magnetic field the imaginary magnetic lines of force are parallel to each other. But in case of non uniform they are not parallel
Does a current carrying conductor experience a force when kept parallel to the magnetic field?
Yes. The force attracts the conductor to the magnetic field, F= eVB = e(-V.B + VxB) = e[-V.B, ] =- eV.B when V and B are parallel!
What is a region where a magnetic force can be detected?
The magnetic field. If it's an electromagnet, the electromagnetic field.
Can a charged particle moved through a magnetic field without experiencing any force?
If the motion of the particle is parallel to the direction of the field, then the force on the particle will be zero. This is an unstable condition, though. Even the slightest deviation from parallel will give a tiny force to the particle, which nudges it farther away from the parallel direction.
What occurs to the magnetic field lines when the magnets have opposite poles facing each other?
The field lines are parallel and create an attractive force field.
Can a magnetic field exert a force on a stationary current-carrying wire?
Surely but current direction has not to be parallel to magnetic field. Force on the wire = B I L sin@ When @ is zero, ie parallel then F = 0 If @ = 90 then force will be max. F = B I L Here L is the length of the current carrying conductor
What is the force on a circular conductor in a magnetic field?
magnetic force
Why does the current carrying conductor experiences a force when it is placed in magnetic field state Fleming's left hand rule?
The force on current carrying conductor kept in a magnetic field is given by the expression F = B I L sin@ So the force becomes zero when the current carrying conductor is kept parallel to the magnetic field direction and becomes maximum when the current direction is normal to the magnetic field direction. Ok now why does a force exist on the current carrying conductor? As current flows through a conductor magnetic lines are formed aroung the conductor. This magnetic field gets interaction with the external field and so a force comes into the scene.
Can a charged particle move through a magnetic field without experiencing any force?
No, the particle has the following forces f= qvB= - qv.B + qvxB, the first force is a scalar force when the particle is parallel to the field and teh second force is avector force when teh particle is perpendicular to the field. If the particle is not neither parallel or perpendicular to the field, both the scalar and vector forces will be experiencd.
What is electro -magnetic force?
Magnetic force is present around the electric field which is also known as electro-magnetic field.
What is the magnetic force of this planet called?
The magnetic force on Earth is called Earth's magnetic field or also the geomagnetic field.
What is a magenetic field?
Magnetic field is the region where a magnetic material such as iron is getting influenced. When current flows through a conductor then magnetic field is created around it. Michael Faraday introduces the magnetic lines of force which are imaginary lines. These start from north pole and end at south pole. North and south poles cannot be isolated from one another. When we bring a small magnetic needle in a magnetic field it will be aligned in the direction of the magnetic field with its north-south poles parallel to the magnetic lines of force.
