Question

A long thin wire carrying a current I1 =10 A (out of page) is located at (0, 0) and another wire carrying a current I2 =8A (into the page) is located at (x=9cm, y=0). Find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field due to these two currents at (x=0, y=12 cm). Your solution must include a neat diagram

Step 1

For the wire carrying current I1, the magnetic field direction can be found using the right-hand rule. If you point your right thumb in the direction of the current (out of the page), your fingers will curl in the direction of the magnetic field. At point (0, 12 Show more…
