Answer:
The magnitude of magnetic field is 0.011 T in +z direction.
Explanation:
Given that,
Current, I = 17 A
The magnetic force per unit length, [tex]\dfrac{F}{l}=0.19\ N/m[/tex]
We need to find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field in the region through which the current passes. The magnetic force acting on the conductor is given by :
[tex]F=ilB[/tex]
B is magnetic field
[tex]B=\dfrac{F}{il}\\\\B=\dfrac{0.19}{17}\\\\B=0.011\ T[/tex]
For direction,
[tex]\dfrac{F}{l}(-j)=i(+i) B[/tex]
The magnetic field is in +z direction. Hence, this is the required solution.
