Problem

A 0.50 m0.50\,\text{m} long conductor is used as the heating element of a device rated 60 W60\,\text{W} at 12 V12\,\text{V}. The conductor is placed in a uniform magnetic field making an angle of 60∘60^{\circ} with the field. What minimum magnetic field strength is required so that the conductor experiences a force of 0.24 N0.24\,\text{N}?
