Question
A set of wires arranged on the corners of a square of side length ?s each carry a different current, as shown in the figure. The wire in the lower left corner carries a constant current ? in the k-direction. The wire in the upper left corner carries a current I→1=−Ik, the wire in the upper right corner carries a current I→2=−12Ik, and the lower right wire carries a current I→3=I2k.
Determine the vector expression for the net magnetic force FB→ per unit length L on the lower left wire using ??? unit vector notation. Express your answer in terms of the permeability μ0 of free space, s, ?, and numerical constants.
