Two infinitely long straight parallel wires are 5 m apart, perpendicular to the plane of paper. One of the wires, as it passes perpendicular to the plane of paper, intersects it at A and carries current i in the downward direction. The other wire intersects the plane A of paper at point B and carries current i in the outward direction O in the plane of paper as shown in figure. With x and y axes as shown, magnetic induction at O in the component form can be expressed as
detailed solution
Correct option is B
From trigonometry AP = 16/5 and PB - 915. Thus,sin AOP - 4/5 and, cos AOP - 3/5 sin BOP = 3/5 and cos BOP - 4/5 Magnetic field due to A is BA=μ0i8π which makes angle θ with negative x-axis and lies in third quadrant. Magnetic field at O due to wire B is BB=μ0i6π which makes angle θ with y-axis and lies in second quadrant. In component form BA→=μ0i8π-45i-35j BB→=μ0i6π-35i+45j Thus, BA→+BB→=μ0i5π-i+724jSimilar Questions
Two infinitely long straight parallel wires carry equal currents ‘i’ in the same direction and are 2 m apart. Magnetic induction at a point which is at same normal distance from each wire has magnitude
