The force per meter between the two wires of a jumper cable being used to start a stalled car is 0.286 N/m.
(a)
What is the current (in A) in the wires, given they are separated by 2.10 cm?
The wires which connect the battery of an automobile to its starting motor carry a
current of 300 A (for a short time). What is the force per unit length between the wires if
they are 70 cm long and 1.5 cm apart? Is the force attractive or repulsive?
Two parallel wires are separated by 6.45 cm, each carrying 3.10 A of current in the same direction.
(a) What is the magnitude of the force per unit length between the wires?
(b) Is the force attractive or repulsive?
