    Calculating Magnetic Force on a Wire in Earth's Magnetic Field at 40 Degrees

    " A 1.5-m length of wire carrying 6.5 A of current is oriented horizontally. At that point on the Earth's surface, the dip angle of the Earth's magnetic field makes an angle of 40 degrees to the wire. Estimate the magnetic force on the wire due to the Earth's magnetic field of 5.5*10^-5 T at...
