Question 65
H

A wire is perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. A student uses the total wire length of 0.60 m to calculate B B\,B from the measured force and current. Only 0.12 m of the wire is inside the field. Which describes the student’s calculated value of BBB?

[1]
A

Five times the correct value, because the length used is too large.

B

One-fifth of the correct value, because the length used is too large.

C

One-fifth of the correct value, because the length used is too small.

D

Five times the correct value, because the length used is too small.
