Two wires lay parallel to each other in the x-y plane so that they both carry currents directed in the +y direction. Both currents are positive, but are of unknown magnitude. Let us divide the x-y plane into three regions, as shown in the figure below: (I) To the left of both wires (II) In between the two wires (III) To the right of both wires Which of the following statements about the magnetic field direction due to these currents is correct? Both I1 and I2 are pointing up. Region 1 is before I1 and region 2 is in between I1 and I2 and region 3 is after I2.
Choose the correct answer:
In Region (II), the magnetic field COULD point into the page (-z direction) in some locations
In Region (III), the magnetic field MUST point into the page (-z direction) everywhere
In Region (II), the magnetic field COULD be zero at some locations.
In Region (II), the magnetic field COULD point out of the page (+z direction) in some locations
All of these statements are correct
n Region (I), the magnetic field MUST point out of the page (+z direction) everywhere

Four long straight parallel wires are oriented perpendicular to
the x-y plane and carry currents I1, I2,
I3 and I4. The magnitudes of the currents are
all identical and equal to 4.015 A. Current I3 is into
the x-y plane (i.e. into the screen), whereas each of the other
three currents are all out of the x-y plane(i.e. out of the screen)
as shown below. Each of the wires is a distance of 2.987 cm from
the origin as measured...

Two long, parallel transmission lines, d = 40.0 cm apart, carry
I1 = 25.0 A and I2 = 75.0 A.
Don't do part A, only parts D-F.
2. Two long, parallel transmission lines, d = 40.0 cm apart, carry 11 = 25.0 A and 12 = 75.0 A. We are to find all locations where the net magnetic field due to the two wires is zero if these currents are in: i) the same direction and ii) the opposite direction....
