N/m (b) What is the direction of the force if the current is straight up and the Earth's field direction is due north, parallel to the ground? ---Select- A wire carrying a 35.0 A current passes between the poles of a strong magnet such that the wire is perpendicular to the...
2. A very long, straight wire runs from west to east. The wire is 17 m long and carries a 2.6 A current that moves from west to east. a. Earth's magnetic field is approximately uniform, and is directed from south to north. At the location of the wire, the magnetic field has the strength 4.4 x 10-5 T. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the force that Earth's magnetic field applies to the wire. b. What is the magnitude...
a 1.5 m long wire is pointing in a direction from north-east to south-west. A current of 650 ma is carried by the wire towards the south-west. the earth's magnetic field points due north with a strength of 0.45x10^-4 T. What force does the earth's magnetic field exert on the wire?
The size of the magnetic force on a straight wire of length
L carrying current I in a uniform magnetic field
with strength B is
F=ILBsin(?).
Here ? is the angle between the direction of the
current (along the wire) and the direction of the magnetic field.
Hence Bsin(?) refers to the component of the
magnetic field that is perpendicular to the wire, B?. Thus
this equation can also be written as
F=ILB?.
The direction of the magnetic force on...
need to nnow the direction of the force
