Answer:
22%
Explanation:
55 - 45 = 10
10/45 simplifies to 2/9
2/9 = 0.22222... so 22.22% (rounded 22%)
Answer:
(a) The current should be in opposite direction
(b) The current needed is 39.8 A
Explanation:
Part (a)
Based, on right hand rule, the current should be in opposite direction
Part (b)
given;
strength of magnetic field, B = 370 µT
distance between the two parallel wires, d = 8.6 cm

At the center, the magnetic field strength is twice

R = d/2 = 8.6/2 = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m

Therefore, current needed is 39.8 A
