Along the inclined plane, a component of the magnetic force acting on the conductor and the component of the weight of conduction will bring equilibrium so, 

B I L \cos \theta=m g \sin \theta \text {-(1) }

Here, force on the conductor BIL act horizontally towards right.

Now from equation 1 - 

I=\frac{m g \sin \theta}{B l \cos \theta}=\frac{m g}{B l} \tan \theta

I=\frac{0.30 \times 9.8}{0.15} \tan 30^{\circ}=11.3 \mathrm{~A}
