Answer:
Magnetic field experienced = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ T
Explanation:
The magnetic field around an infinite straight current-carrying wire at a distance r from the wire is given by
B = (μ₀I)/(2πr)
B = ?
I = 20 KA = 20000 A
r = 8.9 m
μ₀ = magnetic permeability = 1.257 × 10⁻⁶ T.m/A
B = (1.257 × 10⁻⁶ × 20000)/(2π×8.9) = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ T
The answer is 175184.08 joules
