As shown in the figure, a metallic rod of linear density 0.45 km-1 is lying horizontally on a smooth incline plane which makes an angle of 45° 5with 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 = m/s2}

Correct Option - 1
Detailed Solution:Linear density, 0.45 kg/m
Let length = = m = 0.45
B = 0.15 T
For equilibrium of rod :-
mg sin 45° = FB sin 45°
