Question

A 5.0 m portion of wire carries a current of 8.0 A from east to west.
It experiences a magnetic field of 6.0 × 10^4 T running from north to south.
What is the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on the wire?

Answer 1

Please help me

Answer 2

I dont get how to answer this question

Answer 3

the magnetic force has the subsequent magnitude \(F\):
\[F = IlB\]
wherein \(I\) is the current;
\(l\) is the portion of wire inside the magnetic field:
\(B\) is the magnitude of the magnetic field.
the corresponding vector \({\mathbf{F}}\), is given by the left hand rule

Answer 4

namely, \(l\) is a length
