Question

In magnetic force on a current carrying wire" expriment using the data for force (y-axis, in Newton) versus length in meters), someone obtained a linear curve fit countion: y=0.1x+2. If in the experiment, the wire carrying a current 2.0 Ahow strong is the magnetic field? 2.0.1 T b. 0.05 T 2T d.0.2 T

Answer 1

Magnetic field, B = 0.05 T

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

In magnetic force on a current carrying wire" experiment using the data for force (y-axis, in Newton) versus length in meters, someone obtained a linear curve fit count

y = 0.1 x + 2

Where,

x is in meters

and y is in newtons

Slope of the equation,
`m=(y)/(x)=(F)/(l)=0.1`

Magnetic force is given by,

`F=ILB`

`B=(F)/(IL)`

`B=(0.1)/(2)=0.05\ T`

So, the strength of the magnetic field is 0.05 T. Hence, this is the required solution.
