A current of 18 A runs vertically up through a wire that passes through a table. A compass is placed 13 cm due north of where the wire passes through the table. The magnetic field of the earth at this location is 2.6 × 10-5 T due north. Determine the angle between the compass needle and due north.
I know that the answer is 46.8° west of due north , but how did they get that? Please show solution steps
Thank you

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...

2. A very long, straight wire runs from west to east. The wire is 17 m long and carries a 2.6 A current that moves from west to east. a. Earth's magnetic field is approximately uniform, and is directed from south to north. At the location of the wire, the magnetic field has the strength 4.4 x 10-5 T. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the force that Earth's magnetic field applies to the wire. b. What is the magnitude...

You have landed on a planet and wish to determine the magnetic field of the planet at the landing site. You set up an experiment similar to the one you did in the lab. First, after determining north, you set up a compass along a north-south line on its edge and notice that the angle of the compass needle is 30 degree from the horizontal. Next, you set the compass due north of a vertical wire, with the center of...
