Wire "a" carries a current of 55.0 A into the page. What must be the current (magnitude and direction with respect to "a") in wire "b" for the resultant magnetic field at point P to be zero? Wire a, wire b and the point Pare on a straight line and wire b is 18.60 cm from P Magnitude: Direction: O Into the page O Out of the page Submit Answer Tries 0/10 Post Discussion Send Feedbac
Explanation / Answer
Net B= miuo*i1/2*pi*r1 +miuo*i2/2*pi*r2
0= miuo*i1/2*pi*r1 +miuo*i2/2*pi*r2
i1/r1=-i2/r2
55/(18.6+4.4)=-i2/18.6
i2=-44.48 A
- indicated that direction of current is opposite to that in a
Ans:
Magnitude:44.48 A
Direction:out of the page
