Problem 25P The mathematics of the previous problem can also be applied to a one-dimensional random walk: a journey consisting of N steps, all the same size, each chosen randomly to be either forward or backward. (The usual mental image is that of a drunk stumbling along an alley.) a) Where are you m

Consider a straight section of wire of length d, as in Fig. 28-48, which carries a current I. (a) Show that the magnetic field at a point P a distance R from the wire along its perpendicular bisector is B = Mo I d 2ttR [d2 + 4R 2)\ (b) Show that this is consistent with Example 28-11 for an infinite w
