Question

In the diagram below current number one is 50 amps out of the plane of the page and number two is 32 amps into the plane. The right triangle is the classic 345 triangle. Determine the total magnetic field due to the two wires at the third corner of the triangle (P)

In the diagram below current #1 is 50 amps out of the plane of the page and #2 is 32 amps into the plane. The right triangle is the classic 3 4 5 triangle. Determine the total magnetic field due to the two wires at the third corner of the triangle (P). (15) #1 50 amps out 5 cm 3 cm #2 32 amps into 4 cm

Explanation / Answer

Solution) Given current i1=50A

i2=32A

Magnetic field B1=(Uoi1/2(pi)r)

B1=(4(pi)×10^(-7)×50)/(2(pi)(5×10^(-2))

B1=20×10^(-5)T

B2=(Uoi2/2(pi)r')

B2=(4(pi)×10^(-7)×32)/(2(pi)4×10^(-2))

B2=16×10^(-5)

Net magnetic field Bnet=B1-B2

Bnet=20×10^(-5) - 16×10^(-5)

Bnet=4×10^(-5)T
