SUMMARY
The discussion centers on calculating the net magnetic field at a point where two mutually perpendicular magnetic fields are present. It is established that magnetic fields are vector quantities, and their resultant can be determined using vector addition principles. The net magnetic field can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem, as the fields are at right angles to each other. This results in a net magnetic field magnitude equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the individual magnetic field strengths.
