Solution :
a). B at the center :
Here, one of the current is in the clockwise direction and therefore, the other current must be in the clockwise direction in order to cancel out the effect of the magnetic field that is produced by the other.
Therefore, the answer is ANTICLOCKWISE or COUNTERCLOCKWISE
b). Also, the sum of the fields must be zero.
Therefore,
So,
A
Therefore, the current in the outer wire is 24.38 ampere.
Answer: 12 N to the right
Explanation:
If we calculate the net force acting on the box, we will have:
<u>In y-component:</u>
(1)
Where is the Normal force, directed upwards and
is the weight of the box (gravity force), directed downwards.
(2)
(3) Hence the net force in the vertical component is zero
<u>In x-component:</u>
(4)
Where and
(5)
(6) This is the net force in the horizontal component
Therefore, the total net force acting on the box is 12 N directed to the right
