When a current carrying wire is placed in a magnetic field, a force exists on the wire. This force is known as the magnetic force.
The expression for the magnetic force is given as
[tex]F=I(l\times B)[/tex]Here I is the current
*Here B is the magnetic field
*Here l is the length of the wire
The magnetic force is both perpendicular to the field and the wire. Hence, the given statement is a true statement.
