A current balance is constructed as follows: part of a wire, 10.0 cm long, is placed on a plate of an electronic balance, as shown in the figure below. This wire is connected to a current source (power supply) and a long horizontal wire, parallel to the wire on the platter, positioned just above it. The distance between the central axis of the two wires is 2.00 cm. When the source is turned on, the scale reading increases by 7.00 mg. What is the current in the wire (at A)? If the sensitivity of the balance is 0.100 mg, what is the minimum current that can be detected (in mA to one decimal place)?

- Review. The use of superconductors has been proposed for power transmission lines. A single coaxial cable (Fig. P23.73) could carry a power of 1.00 103 MW (the output of a large power plant) at 200 kV, DC, over a distance of 1.00 103 km without loss. An inner wire of radius a = 2.00 cm, made from the superconductor Nb3Sn, carries the current I in one direction. A surrounding superconducting cylinder of radius b = 5.00 cm would carry the return current I. In such a system, what is the magnetic field (a) at the surface of the inner conductor and (b) at the inner surface of the outer conductor?
