- Your answer is partially correct. One long wire lies along an x axis and carries a current of 57 A in the positive x direction. A second long wire is perpendicular to the xy plane, passes through the point (0, 7.2 m, 0), and carries a current of 45 A in the positive z direction. What is the magnitude of the resulting magnetic field at the point (0, 2.0 m, 0)?

The window is at a height h = 18.0 m above the ground. A uniform, horizontal magnetic field of magnitude B = 0.0100 T is perpendicular to the plane of the ball's trajectory and directed toward the west. (a) Assuming the ball follows the same trajectory as it would in the absence of the magnetic field, find the magnetic force acting on the ball just before it hits the ground. (Let the +x-direction be toward the north, the +y-direction be up and the +z-direction be east.) B.
