Homework Statement
A wire carrying a 27.0A current bends through a right angle. Consider two 2.00mm segments of wire, each 3.00cm from the bend.
Find the magnitude of the magnetic field these two segments produce at point P, which is midway between them.
Homework Equations
F = IL x B
The Attempt at a Solution
B = F / IL
= F / 27 x 0.004 m (both 2mm segments combined)
once again stuck on how to find F, and unsure if i am even using the correct equation. where does the 3cm from the bend bit come into play if at all?
