Three long wires are all parallel to each other and are all in the xy plane. Wire 1 runs along the y axis and carries a current of 1.66 A in the +y direction. Wire 2 runs along the

x = 25.0 cm

line and carries a current of 4.00 A in the ?y direction.

(a) Determine the location of wire 3 on the x axis so that when it carries a certain current (to be determined later) each wire experiences no net force.

Consider two infinite plates, both parallel to the xy plane of a coordinate system. The top plate is at the height z = +5cm and carries a uniform charge distribution of ?= +3nC/m2. The bottom plate is at height z = - 5cm and carries a uniform charge distribution of ?= -3nC/m2. The space between the plates is filled with air. Between the plates runs a long wire along the y-axis (at z=0 and x=0), carrying a current of 10A....
