Question 6
Homework Answered Due Nov 8th, 1:00 AM
Parallel Wires -- Three equally spaced parallel wires have equal magnitudes
of current / flowing in the directions shown in the image. What is the
direction of the net force on wire #2? (hints: remember you have to
consider the resultant of two forces due to the other wires. Like currents
attract and opposite currents repel. Remember also that the wire that is
farther away produces a weaker magnetic force.) Figure [12.19].
