An electric current is passed through a copper wire by connecting its ends to a battery. It is kept between the poles of a strong horseshoe magnet. There is a force on the wire due to the magnet. If you interchange the connections to the positive and negative terminals of the battery, and also the positions of the north and south poles of the magnet, what will be the change in the force on the wire due to the magnet?
