Determine the modulus of force F acting on a straight conductor with a length of l = 3.0 m
Determine the modulus of force F acting on a straight conductor with a length of l = 3.0 m with a current of force I = 2.5A from the side of a uniform magnetic field with induction B = 34T, if the conductor is located at an angle a = 60 degrees to direction B.
l = 3 m.
I = 2.5 A.
B = 34 T.
∠α = 60 °.
Fump -?
If a conductor with a current of length l is located in a magnetic field with induction B, it is acted upon by the Ampere force Famp, the value of which is determined by the formula: Famp = I * l * B * sinα. Where I is the current in the conductor, ∠α is the angle between the conductor l and the magnetic induction B.
Famp = 2.5 A * 3 m * 34 T * sin60 ° = 221 N.
The direction of the Ampere force is determined by the left hand rule.
Answer: a force Famp = 221 N. acts on a conductor with a current in a magnetic field.
