The force on one of the wires is determined as 1.76 x 10⁻⁴ N/m.
Force on the wire
The force between the two parallel wire is calculated as follows;
F = μI²L/2πr
where;
- I is the current in the two wires
- L is length of the wires
- r is the distance between the wires
F = (4π x 10⁻⁷ x 6.5² x 1.5)/(2π x 0.048)
F = 2.64 x 10⁻⁴ N
Force per unit length of the wire
F/L = 2.64 x 10⁻⁴ N / 1.5
F/L = 1.76 x 10⁻⁴ N/m
Thus, the force on one of the wires is determined as 1.76 x 10⁻⁴ N/m.
