A teacher used the equipment shown in the figure below to demonstrate the motor effect. The copper rod in the figure above has a length of 7 cm and a mass of 4×10−4 kg. When there is a current of 1.12 A the resultant force on the copper rod is 0 N. Calculate the magnetic flux density. Gravitational field strength = 9.8 N/kg [5 marks]
