SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on identifying the zero magnetic field points around three parallel wires carrying equal currents. It concludes that these points are located near wire 3 in region B and near wire 1 in region A. Additionally, when the middle wire is displaced a small distance (x << d), the magnetic field configuration changes, affecting the location of the zero magnetic field points. The participants emphasize the importance of showing work in problem-solving for clarity.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of magnetic fields generated by current-carrying wires
  • Familiarity with the Biot-Savart Law
  • Knowledge of vector addition in magnetic fields
  • Concept of superposition in electromagnetism
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the Biot-Savart Law for calculating magnetic fields
  • Learn about the superposition principle in electromagnetism
  • Explore the effects of wire displacement on magnetic field distribution
  • Investigate the concept of magnetic field lines around parallel wires
USEFUL FOR

Physics students, electrical engineers, and anyone interested in electromagnetism and magnetic field analysis around current-carrying conductors.

If there are three parallel current carrying wire where are two points that magnetic field is zero? (currents and distances are equal). If the midle wire is slided x<<d what is its moving?

I am not able to undersatnd your second question

PS Please show your work from next time onwards. We help you in doing your HW... we are not here to do your HW
 
On my question currents are same direction and distance are d. My second question is if we move middle wire (x<<d) what is motion?
