Question

Transcribed Image Text:In the figure, four long straight wires are perpendicular to the page, and their cross sections form a square of edge length a = 29 cm.
The currents are out of the page in wires 1 and 4 and into the page in wires 2 and 3, and each wire carries 15 A. What is the magnitude
of the net magnetic field at the square's center?
