62 Consider a wire carrying a steady current, I placed in a uniform magnetic field B perpendicular to its length. Consider the charges inside the wire. It is known that magnetic forces do not work. This implies that,
A motion of charges inside the conductor is unaffected by B, since they do not absorb energy.
B Some charges inside the wire move to the surface as a result of B.
C if the wire moves under the influence of B, no work is done by the force.
D If the wire moves under the influence of B, no work is done by the electric force on the ions, assumed fixed within the wire.

Answer: Some charges inside the wire move to the surface as a result of B.
