One wire carries a current of I1= 2 Amps, and the other carries a parallel current (same direction, wires are side by side) of I2=0.75 Amps. They are 5 meters long in this configuration and separated from each other by 5 cm. What is the magnitude of the force experienced by the wire carried I2?

Respuesta :

Answer:[tex]F=3\times 10^{-5} N[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]I_1=2 Amps[/tex]

[tex]I_2=0.75 Amps[/tex]

Length of each wires[tex]\left ( L\right )=5 m[/tex]

Distance between wires [tex]\left ( r\right )=5 cm[/tex]

Force per unit length =[tex]\frac{\mu_0I_1I_2}{2\pi r}[/tex]

[tex]F'=\frac{2\times 10^{-7}\times 2\times 0.75}{2\pi \times 0.05}[/tex]

[tex]F'=6\times 10^{-6}[/tex]

Force for [tex]L=5 m[/tex]

[tex]F=3\times 10^{-5} N[/tex]
