Determine the magnitude and direction of the force between two parallel wires 35 m long and 3.0 cm apart, each carrying 35 a in the same direction.

Respuesta :

Answer;

= 0.2858 N, attractive

Explanation;

Since the currents are parallel, the force on each wire will be attractive, toward the other wire. Therefore; to calculate the magnitude of force we use the formula;

F2 = (μ₀/2π)(I₁I₂/d)I₂

Where;

μ₀ = constant = 4π × 10^-7 H/m,

I₁, I₂ are the currents,

L s the length o the wire,

d is the distance between these two wires

if current are in same direction, they exert attractive force on each other and if currents are in opposite direction, they exert repulsive force

Therefore;

   F₂ = (4π × 10^-7 T.m/A)/2π) × ((35 A)²/ 0.03 m)× 35 m

    = 0.2858 N, attractive

The magnitude and direction of the force between two parallel wires will be 0.2858 N, attractive

What will be the magnitude and direction of the force between two parallel wires?

It is given that the currents are flowing parallel in the wire so the force on each wire will be attractive. By using the force formula for two parallel wires carrying current.

[tex]F=\dfrac{\mu}{2\pi } \dfrac{I_1 I_2}{d} L[/tex]

Where:

μ₀ = constant = [tex]4\pi \times10^{-7} \ \frac{H}{m}[/tex]  

I₁, I₂ are the currents,

L = is the length o the wire,

d = is the distance between these two wires

if the current is in the same direction, they exert an attractive force on each other and if currents are in opposite direction, they exert a repulsive force

Therefore

[tex]F=\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}}{2\pi} \dfrac{35\times35}{0.03} \times35[/tex]

[tex]F=0.2858N[/tex]

 

Thus the magnitude and direction of the force between two parallel wires will be 0.2858 N, attractive
