Instead of using the wire's magnetic field for deriving using Newton's third law can't we do the opposite using the magnetic field produced by magnet ? I mean why doesn't the wire simply move in the direction of magnetic field produced by the magnet if magnet moves in the direction of magnetic field produced by wire ?

  • $\begingroup$ Actually you can checkout the video in the link it explains why magnet won't move in circle $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 18, 2020 at 19:27
