Answer:

D. The force on the wire is 24 N.

Explanation:

Given;

length of the wire,  L = 0.6 m

current in the wire, I = 4 A

magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 10 T

The fore on the wire is calculated as;

F = BILsinθ

where;

θ is the angle of inclination of the wire on magnetic field = 90°

F = (10)(4)(0.6)(sin 90°)

F = 24 N

Therefore, the force on the wire is 24 N.
