Homework Statement
A 1.60 cm x 1.60 cm square loop of wire with resistance [tex]1.10 \times 10^{-2} \Omega[/tex] is parallel to a long straight wire. The near edge of the loop is 1.10 cm from the wire. The current in the wire is increasing at the rate of 100 A/s
Homework Equations
I think I have to use Ampere's law to enclose the parallel wires.
[tex]\oint B*dl = \mu_0I_{enclosed}[/tex]
The Attempt at a Solution
This is all I have so far:
[tex]B*2\pi r=\mu_0(100-I_1+I_2)t[/tex]
I_1 would be the part of the loop closest to the long wire, and I_2 would be farthest. I'm not sure how to proceed further because I get the feeling that I'm just plain doing this problem incorrectly.
