Question

Two long parallel wires are a center-to-center distance of 4.90 cm apart and carry equal anti-parallel currents of 4.10 A. Find the magnetic field intensity at the point P which is equidistant from the wires. (R = 6.00 cm).

Answer 1

Answer:

The magnetic field intensity at the point P, equidistant from the wires is

9.566 x  $10^{-5}$ T

Explanation:

The magnetic field intensity can be obtained by resolving the vertical and horizontal components of the magnetic field. The step by step calculation is contained in the pictures attached;
