A long horizontal wire carries a current of
I1 = 28.0 A. A second
wire, made of 0.200 mm diameter copper wire, is 42.0 cm below the
first wire and is held in suspension magnetically. What is the
magnitude and direction of the current in the bottom wire? Give a +
sign if I2 is
parallel to I1, and a
- sign if I2 is
opposite to I1.
The mass density of Copper is 8.93
area of wire:
pi
* r^2 = 3.141* 10^-8 m^2
mass of wire per
unit length:
area * density = 2.805 * 10^-4 g / m
current in the same direction for two parallel wires is attraction,
opposite direction is repulsion.
force required per unit length: F' = mass' *
acceleration
= (2.805 * 10^-7 kg / cm) * (9.81 m/s^2) = 2.75 * 10^-6
N
F' = mu*I_1*I_2 / (2 * pi * d)
solve for I_2...
I_2 = F' * (2 * pi * d) / (mu * I_1)
= (2.75 * 10^-6)(2)(pi)(42)/(4*pi*10^-7*28)
= 20.625 A

A long horizontal wire carries a current of IT = 49.1 A. A second wire (I = 5.54×103 A, parallel to IT), made of 2.30 mm diameter copper wire and parallel to the first but a distance L below it, is held in suspension magnetically, as seen in the figure below. (This means the upwards magnetic force on that lower wire is just large enough to hold it up against its own weight) What is the distance L between the...
a) a horizontal long straight wire carries a current of I1= 8A from left to right. The wire is tangential to a circular loop of wire of Radius R= .03 m lying immediately below it. The loop carries a current of l2= 2A in the counter clockwise direction. Assuming that the thickness of the wires are negligible, find the magnitude and direction of the net magnetic field at the center of the circular loop b) a second long wire also...
Consider a long straight wire that carries a current of I1= 375 mA upward.
