Answer:
Explanation:
Magnitude of magnetic field due to a current carrying conductor
= ( μ₀ / 4π ) x 2I / d , I is current , d is distance from wire . This formula has been derived from Ampere's Law.
= 10⁻⁷ x 2 x 23 / 10 Current given I = 23
= 46 x 10⁻⁸ T .
Magnetic field due to current 17 A
10⁻⁷ x 2 x 17 / 10
= 34 x 10⁻⁸ T .
Magnetic field due to current 11 A
10⁻⁷ x 2 x 11 / 10
= 22 x 10⁻⁸ T .
magnetic field due to current 17 A and 11 A are in same direction so total magnetic field
= 34 x 10⁻⁸ + 22 x 10⁻⁸
= 56 x 10⁻⁸ T
magnetic field due to current 23 A in opposite direction so total magnetic field
= 46 x 10⁻⁸ - 56 x 10⁻⁸
= - 10 x 10⁻⁸ T
Magnitude = 10 x 10⁻⁸ T .
