A wire carries a current of 6.52 A in a direction that makes an angle of 44.8 degrees with the direction of a magnetic field of strength 0.258 T. What is the magnetic force on a 3.61 m length of wire

Answer:


F=4.27N

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Current
I = 6.52 A

Angle
\theta= 44.8 \textdegree

Magnetic field
B= 0.258 T.

Length
l=3.61m

Generally the equation for Magnetic force F is mathematically given by


F=BIlsin\theta

Therefore


F=0.258*6.52*3.61*sin 44.8


F=4.27N
