To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to electromagnetic force. This force is defined as the product between the free space permeability constant, the product of the two currents found, at the rate of the distance that separates them. In this way mathematically it can be given as,

F = \frac{\mu_0 I_1I_2 }{2\pi d}

Here,

\mu_0 = Permeability of free space

I = Each current

d = Distance

Replacing with our values,

F = \frac{(4\pi *10^{-7})(5)(8)}{2\pi (0.3)}

F = 2.7*10^{-5} N

Therefore the force is 2.7*10^{-5}N

Two automobiles of equal mass approach an intersection. One vehicle is traveling with velocity 12.0 m/s toward the east and the
Daniel [21]

Answer: 25.7m/s

Explanation: the cars have equal masses so we only consider their velocities,

The cars traveled together at 65° north of east this is with a velocity equal to the resultant velocity,

Using the force diagram as shown below;

Tan 65° = Vn/Ve

Ve is velocity of the car traveling east

Vn is velocity of car traveling north

Tan 65° = V2/12

2.144 = V2/12

V2 = 12 * 2.144

V2 = 25.7 m/s
