The x, y, and z components of a magnetic field are Bx = 0.14 T, By = 0.18 T, and Bz = 0.17 T. A 25-cm wire is oriented along the z axis and carries a current of 3.8 A. What is the magnitude of the magnetic force that acts on this wire?
Given is :-
Current
Length of the wire
Now,
The magnetic force on the wire is given by
by plugging all the values we get
which gives us
or
thus
the magnitude of the above force will be
which gives us
