Question
Figure (a) shows an element of length ds = 1.26 um in a very long straight wire carrying current. The current in that element sets up a
differential magnetic field aB at points in the surrounding space. Figure (b) gives the magnitude dB of the field for points 3.6 cm from
the element, as a function of angle between the wire and a straight line to the point. The vertical scale is set by dB = 60.0 pT. What is
the magnitude of the magnetic field set up by the entire wire at perpendicular distance 3.6 cm from the wire?
