Two parallel wires are 2.02 mm apart and 7.8 m long. Each wire carries a current of 8.9 A. Find the magnitude of the force (in Newtons) that they exert on each other
The unit of current, the ampere, is defined in terms of the force between currents. If two 1.0-meter-long sections of very long wires a distance 1.0 m apart each carry a current of 1.0 A, what is the force between them? (If the force between two actual wires has this value, the current is defined to be exactly 1 A.)
A long straight wire carries a current of 49.2 A. An electron, traveling at 1.00 × 107 m/s, is 8.00 cm from the wire. What force acts on the electron if the electron’s velocity is directed toward the wire? If the direction of force is perpendicular to the current, enter a negative value.
