Six parallel infinite wires are placed at the vertices of a regular hexagon. Five wires carry current each while the sixth wire carries current as shown. The resultant magnetic field at the centre of the hexagon is




Important Questions on Moving Charges and Magnetism
A current / flows in a long straight wire with crosssection having the form of a thin quarter-ring of radius (see figure). The magnetic field at point if the current flows out of the page is

A semicircular wire of radius carrying current is placed in a magnetic field as shown in the figure. On right hand side of the magnetic field is outward and on the left hand side it is inward as shown. The magnetic force experience by the wire is

The magnetic field at the centre of dotted circle in the arrangement shown is

The magnetic field at point in the hollow cylindrical wire carrying a current shown in the figure at a distance from axis is given by (Taking current density to be uniform across its cross-section)


In the plane of coil a uniform magnetic field exists. Torque on the current carrying coil of radius is

Calculate the torque acting upon the following structure carrying current due to the magnetic field Both the magnetic field and the structure are in the plane of paper as shown.

An infinite semi-cylindrical conducting shell of radius carrying a current along direction as shown in figure. If a charge particle is projected from point (on the axis of semi-cylindrical shell) with velocity then force on this charge particle will be
