Answer:

the total magnetic force on the 2 sides of the wire is 0.30 N

Option a) 0.30 N is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

both the sides of the right angled triangle is the same and the magnetic is in the plane of the  triangle and is perpendicular to the hypotenuse.

hence, angle between the magnetic field and both the sides of the triangle is 45 degrees.

∅ = 45°

I = 2.0 A

L = 15 cm = 0.15 m

B = 0.7 T

Total magnetic force on the 2 sides of the wire will be;

F = 2BILsin∅

we substitute

F = 2 × 0.7 × 2.0 × 0.15 × sin(45°)

F = 0.42 × 0.70710678

F = 0.2970 ≈ 0.30 N

Therefore, the total magnetic force on the 2 sides of the wire is 0.30 N

Option a) 0.30 N is the correct answer
