Question

A wire is oriented along the x-axis. It is connected to two batteries, and a conventional current of 1.9 A runs through the wire, in the +x direction. Along 0.19 m of the length of the wire there is a magnetic field of 0.82 tesla in the +y direction, due to a large magnet nearby. At other locations in the circuit, the magnetic field due to external sources is negligible.

At other locations in the circuit, the magnetic field due to external sources is negligible. What is the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire? | | = N What is the direction of the magnetic force on the wire ---Select--- +x -x +y -y +z -z zero magnitude

Explanation / Answer

Fb = I*L*B

Fb = 1.9*0.19*0.82 = 0.29602 N

direction +z
