Answer:
0.076 m
Explanation:
Given,
Current in the wire,I = 245 A
Magnetic field, B = 6.40 x 10⁻³ T
perpendicular distance,r = ?
Using magnetic field formula
[tex]B=\dfrac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}[/tex]
[tex]r=\dfrac{\mu_0 NI}{2\pi B}[/tex]
[tex]r=\dfrac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 245}{2\pi \times 6.40 \times 10^{-3}}[/tex]
r = 0.076 m
Hence, Perpendicular distance from the wire is equal to 0.076 m
