Question

The figure below shows two current carrying wires and the directions of the currents they carry. The wires carry the following currents: I1 = 13.7A and I2 = 10.4 A. Wire 1 is at (0, 4.1) mm; wire 2 is at (10.8, 0) mm; point P is at (10.8, 4.1) mm.

(a) B: _______ T

(b) direction: ________

The figure below shows two current carrying wires and the directions of the currents they carry. The wires carry the following currents: I1 = 13.7A and I2 = 10.4 A. Wire 1 is at (0, 4.1) mm; wire 2 is at (10.8, 0) mm; point P is at (10.8, 4.1) mm. What are the magnitude and direction (measured with respect to the +x direction) of the total magnetic field due to the two wires at point P?

Explanation / Answer

a) B = 5.71 tesla ; b) Direction = 150 degrees with + x-axis
