the magnetic field at a certain point next to a wire carrying 10.0 A of current is 4.20x10^-5 T. what is the field at that point when the current is 20 A

Respuesta :

Answer:

B=8.40x10^-5 T

Explanation:

To find the magnetic field at the new current, first you need to find the distance. To do so, alter the original equation from finding the field to finding the distance.

r (distance) = 4 pi x 10^-7 / 2 pi multiplied by 10.0 / 4.20 x 10^-5

which equals 0.04762

Next, just plug the numbers back into the original equation, taking into account the requested changes.

which equals 8.40x10^-5

Also it was right on Acellus ;)

Hope this helps :)
