Chapter 22 Problem 88GP

Question

Two parallel wires, each carrying a current of 2.2 A in the same direction, are shown in Figure 22–48. Find the direction and magnitude of the net magnetic field at points A, B, and C.

Solution

Solution 88 GP:

Step 1 of 1:-

Here, we have to calculate the magnitude and direction of the net magnetic field at points A, B and C.

The magnetic field at point A will be the sum of the magnetic fields due to wire 1 and 2.

Given that,
