For what position of a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field, the maximum force acts on it? -Science

1 Answer

Answer :

To obtain the maximum force acting on the current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field, the conductor should be placed perpendicular to the magnetic field, i.e. the direction of current should be at right angle to the direction of the magnetic field.
