The easiest way to explain it is roughly identical to the way that your teacher explained it in class. If there were any easier way ... like writing it here in a few paragraphs ... then that's what the teacher would have done. You would have been given the easy explanation on the first day of class, printed on one sheet of paper, and you would have had the rest of the year to practice it and get really good at it.
If the class spent a month teaching it, then that's about how long it takes. Sorry.
Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel through. They can travel through empty space or matter.
Step-#1:
Ignore the wire on the right.
Find the strength and direction of the magnetic field at P,
caused by the wire on the left, 0.04m away, carrying 5.0A
of current upward.
Write it down.
Step #2:
Now, ignore the wire on the left.
Find the strength and direction of the magnetic field at P,
caused by the wire on the right, 0.04m away, carrying 8.0A
of current downward.
Write it down.
Step #3:
Take the two sets of magnitude and direction that you wrote down
and ADD them.
The total magnetic field at P is the SUM of (the field due to the left wire)
PLUS (the field due to the right wire).
So just calculate them separately, then addum up.
Answer:
Alaska: Hydrokinetic Energy Campbell CR9000X used for in-stream hydrokinetic device evaluation. Marine hydrokinetic energy power generation is an emerging sector in the renewable energy portfolio. Hydrokinetic devices convert the energy of waves, tidal currents, ocean currents or river currents into electrical power.
