very long straight wire carries current 15 A. In the middle of the wire a right-angle bend is made. The bend forms an arc of a circle of radius 27 cm, as show. Determine the magnetic field at the center of the arc.

Respuesta :

your question is missing the figure which I have attached below;

Answer:

[tex]B=198.33*10^{-7}[/tex]Tesla.

Explanation:

Using Biot-Savart law

[tex]dB=[/tex]μ[tex]\frac{(I_{ds}r) }{4\pi\ r^{3} }[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{u}{4\pi}\int\limits^a_b {\frac{I_{ds}r }{r^{3} } }[/tex]

as we know from the figure that cure 1/4 of the circle so integrating the above equation from 0 to 2pi and then dividing it by 4 we get;

[tex]B=\frac{u}{4\pi}\int\limits^{2\pi}_{0} {\frac{Irsin(90) }{r^{3} } }\,\ ds[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{uI}{8r}[/tex]

Also we know that magnetic field in the length of a wire is

[tex]B=\frac{uI}{4\pi\ r}[/tex]

in the figure there are two parts as length other than curve part so for both parts the sum of magnetic field will be

[tex]B=\frac{uI}{2\pi\ r}[/tex]

Now the total magnetic field is given as

[tex]B=\frac{uI}{8r}+\frac{uI}{2\pi\ r}[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{uI}{8\pi\ r}(\pi+4)[/tex]

putting values we get

[tex]u=4\pi*10^{-7} T.m/A[/tex]

[tex]I=15A[/tex]

[tex]r=27cm=0.27m[/tex]

so

[tex]B=\frac{4\pi*10^{-7}*15}{8*3.14*.27}(3.14+4)[/tex]

solving above equation we get

[tex]B=198.33*10^{-7}[/tex]Tesla.
