If both wires are carrying a current of 4.5 A, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field, in teslas, at point P?

Transcribed Image Text:

P Consider two two long, straight, parallel, current-carrying wires, separated by a distance d= 3.4 cm, as shown in the figure. The left wire is directed out of the page with current I, and the right wire is directed into the page with current 12. The point P is a distance d from both wires, so the wires and the point form an equilateral triangle. d d X d P Consider two two long, straight, parallel, current-carrying wires, separated by a distance d= 3.4 cm, as shown in the figure.
