JEE Main 28 July 2022, Shift 1, Physics Q43

Question 43 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 13 of 30, Section A.

As shown in the figure, a metallic rod of linear density 0.45 kg m−10.45\ \mathrm{kg\,m^{-1}} is lying horizontally on a smooth inclined plane which makes an angle of 45∘45^\circ with the horizontal. The minimum current flowing in the rod required to keep it stationary, when 0.15 T magnetic field is acting on it in the vertical upward direction, will be : {Use g=10 m/s2g=10\ \mathrm{m/s^2}}

The figure, in words

Metallic rod lying horizontally across a smooth inclined plane inclined at 45 deg to the horizontal; current I flows along the rod; magnetic field B drawn vertically upward.
