Question

A current flows in a wire running between the S and N poles of a magnet lying horizontally .The force experienced by the wire is directed​

Answer 1

Answer:it is vertically downwards

Explanation:

Answer 2

The force experienced by the wire is directed​ vertically downward.

• The direction of the force (vertically downwards) is given by Fleming's left-hand rule or Left-hand thumb rule.
• The rule states that when the thumb, index and middle finger of the left hand are set out in a perpendicular direction to each other then. the thumb indicates the direction of force, the index finger indicates the direction of the field and the middle finger gives the direction of the current flowing.
• As per the given question, the current flowing is in the horizontal direction.
• Therefore, the thumb indicating the direction of the force will now rotate vertically downward.
