Question

Two infinite sheets of current flow parallel to the y-z plane as shown. The sheets are equally spaced from the origin by xo = 4.8 cm. Each sheet consists of an infinite array of wires with a density n = 20 wires/cm. Each wire in the left sheet carries a current I1 = 3.4 A in the negative z-direction. Each wire in the right sheet carries a current I2 = 5.5 A in the positive z-direction.

1) What is Bx(P), the x-component of the magnetic field at point P, located at (x,y) = (-2.4 cm, 0)?

2) What is By(P), the y-component of the magnetic field at point P, located at (x,y) = (-2.4 cm, 0)?

3) What is By(R), the y-component of the magnetic field at point R, located at (x,y) = (-7.2 cm, 0)?

5) What is By(S), the y-component of the magnetic field at point S, located at (x,y) = ( 7.2 cm, 0)?

Explanation / Answer

6) B for the integral is the same as at P (#2), so multiply answer #2 by H.
