Question

In the figure 29-49, four long straight wires are perpendicular to the page, and their cross sections form a square of edge length a = 7.30 cm. Each wire carries 14.5 A, and all the currents are out of the page. What is the magnitude of the net magnetic force per unit length on wire 1?

Explanation / Answer

Fx/L = F2 + cos45*F3

        = (i1/2) * {(i2/a) + (2/2) (i3/(2a))}

        = (i1/2a) * (i2 + i3/2)

        = (4*3.14e-7*14.5/(2*3.14*0.0730)) * (14.5 + 14.5/2)

        = 8.64 * 10^-4 N/m

Fy/L = -F4 - cos45*F3

        = -(i1/2) * {(i4/a) + (2/2) (i3/(2a))}

        = -(i1/2a) * (i4 + i3/2)

        = -(4*3.14e-7*14.5/(2*3.14*0.0730)) * (14.5 + 14.5/2)

        = -8.64 * 10^-4 N/m

>>>> F = ((Fx)2+(Fy)2) = 2 * 8.64 * 10^-4 = 12.2 * 10^-4 N/m
