A very long straight wire carries a 12 A current eastward and a second very long straight wire carries a 14 A current westward. The wires are parallel to each other and are 42 cm apart. Calculate the force on a 6.4 m length of one of the wires.

Sagot :

Answer: 5.12x10∧-4N

Explanation:

Force = I B L

L = 6.4m

Let Current (I) I₁ = I₂= 14A

Distance of the wire = 42cm = 0.42m

BUT

B = μ₀I / 2πr

=(2X10∧-7 X 12) / 0.42

       B =5.714×10∧-6T

Force = I B L

Force = 14x [5.714×10-6]×6.4

Force = 5.12x10∧-4N
