Concept explainers

A magnetic force arises when a charged particle or a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field. It is created because of the movement of the charged particles.

Textbook Question

Chapter 11, Problem 106CP

A copper rod of mass in and length L is hung from the ceiling using two springs of spring constant ft. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude pointing perpendicular to the rod and spring [coming out of tire page in tire figure) exists in a region of space covering a length w of the copper rod. The ends of the rod are then connected by flexible copper wire across the terminals of a battery of voltage V. Determine the change in the length of the springs when a current I runs through the copper rod in the direction shown in figure, (Ignore any force by the flexible wire.)
