A wire carrying 3.50 A of current passes through a 0.0425 T magnetic field at a 53.0 degree angle. If the magnetic force on the wire is 0.0345 N, what is the length of the wire in the field? (Unit = m)

Step 1
We know the formula for magnetic force on a wire is F = B * I * L * sin(theta), where F is the magnetic force, B is the magnetic field, I is the current, L is the length of the wire, and theta is the angle between the current and the magnetic field. Show more…

A wire $2.30 \mathrm{~m}$ long carries a current of $13.0 \mathrm{~A}$ and makes an angle of $35.0^{\circ}$ with a uniform magnetic field of magnitude $B=1.50 \mathrm{~T}$. Calculate the magnetic force on the wire.
A wire 35.0 cm long carrying a current of 3.50 A is placed at an angle of 40 degrees in a uniform magnetic field of 0.002 T. Find the force on the wire.
