Question

An elevator carrying a charge of 0.5C is moving down with a velocity of 5 x 103 ms-1. The elevator is 4 m  from the bottom and 3 m horizontally away from P as shown in figure. What magnetic field (in μT) does it produce at point P?

Moderate
Solution

According to Biot-Savart law,

B=μ04πqvr2sinθ=10-7×0.5×5×1035235=6μT
