Question


The drawing shows two perpendicular, long, straight wires, both of which lie in the plane of the paper. The current in each of the wires is I = 4.5 A. In the drawing dH = 0.22 m and dV = 0.48 m. Find the magnitudes of the net magnetic fields at points A and B.

The drawing shows two perpendicular, long, straight wires, both of which lie in the plane of the paper. The current in each of the wires is I = 4.5 A. In the drawing dH = 0.22 m and dV = 0.48 m. Find the magnitudes of the net magnetic fields at points A and B.

Explanation / Answer

the magnetic field due to the first wire is

B1 = (u_o x I/2pi x d_H)

where u_o = 4pi x 10^-7 T.m/A,I = 4.5 A and d_H = 0.22 m

the magnetic field due to the second wire is

B2 = (u_o x I/2pi x d_v)

where d_v = 0.48 m

the total magnetic field is

B = B1 + B2
