A wire through which a current is flowing lies along the x-ais as shown. Connecting wires which are not shown the diagram connect the ends of the wire to batteries (which are also not shown). Electron current flows through the wire in the -x direction, as indicated in the diagram. To calculate the magnetic field at location A due to the current in the wire, we divide the wire into pieces, approximate each piece as a point charge moving in the direction of conventional current, and calculate the magnetic field at the observation location due only to this place; then add the contributions of all pieces to get the net magnetic field.
The wire is 1.9 m long, and is divided into 8 pieces. The observation location A is located at <0.118,0.261,0>m. The conventional current running through the wire is 9.5 amperes. In this exercise you will calculate the magnetic field at the observation location due only to segment 2 of the wire.

A long current-carrying wire, oriented North-South, lies on a table (it is connected to batteries which are not shown). A compass lies on top of the wire, with the compass needle about 3 mm above the wire. With the current running, the compass deflects 10 degrees to the West. At this location, the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is about 2e-5 tesla. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at location A, on the table top, a...
