    Calculating Current in a Wire with a Moving Charged Particle

    Thanks for the reply. Am I getting warmer here: By using the value for B = μ0 (i) / 2 π r = 4πx10-7 (i) / 2 π r we now have current, i, in the eqn F = qvBsinθ, and can now solve for i? Will sinθ be sin90?

    Calculating Current in a Wire with a Moving Charged Particle

    Homework Statement [/B] Suppose the particle has a charge q = 2.5 μC and is moving with a velocity of magnitude v = 1.0 × 103 m s−1, in a direction parallel to the wire and in the same direction as the current. The particle is at distance d = 1.5 mm from the wire and experiences a force of...

    Expression for magnitude of magnetic force

    This is what I got, would appreciate some input: F = qvBsin(theta)
