उत्तर
Given: Current flowing in wire A, IA = 8.0 A
Current flowing in wire B, IB = 5.0 A
Distance between the two wires, r = 4.0 cm = 0.04 m
Length of a section of wire A, l = 10 cm = 0.1 m
`mu_0` = Permeability of free space = 4π × 10–7 T m A–1
Formula: B = `(mu_0 2I_AI_BI)/(4pir)`
B = `(4pi xx 10^-7 xx 2 xx 8 xx 5 xx 0.1)/(4pi xx 0.04)`
= `(0.8 xx 10^-7)/0.04`
= 200 × 10–7
= 2 × 10–5 N
The magnitude of the force is 2 × 10–5 N. This is an attractive force normal to A towards B because the currents in the wires are in the same direction.
