wait a minute team, you would use different current values in the two equations, because one is the field due to one wire, and the second is the force on the other wire right?? ooooooooh, of course...
bahaha, got to love how i only solved it AFTER i posted it.
[SOLVED] EM-Force between current wires
Homework Statement
Problem 105 in chapter 27 Tipler and Mosca for those playing at home...
A long straight wire carries a current of 20 A, as shown in the figure. A rectangular coil
with 2 sides parallel to the straight wire has sides 5 cm and 10...
omg, I HAVE THE SAME ASSIGNMENT!
bahahaha
you can't hide
and it wasnt recent, we were given it at the beginning of the semester, we just have four days to do it now.
Im doing mine on the Hafele-Keating experiment, no stealing.
I googled it, wikipedia's pretty good (to understand stuff)...
well evanQ, guess who had two attempts left when doing that. then i got the right answer! but it wasnt it revolutions per minute. so i had to convert it...and i MULTIPLIED BY 60 INSTEAD OF DIVIDED! ahhh! soooooo annoyed.
anywho, that's all in the past...now there another one to worry about...
