A straight wire carries a current of 238 mA from right to left. What is the magnetic field at a point 10.0 cm directly below the wire? Give the magnitude here, but make sure you can find the direction too

Answer:

B = (4.76 × 10⁻⁷) T

Explanation:

From Biot Savart's law, the magnetic field formula is given as

B = (μ₀I)/(2πr)

B = magnetic field = ?

I = current = 238 mA = 0.238 A

μ₀ = magnetic constant = (4π × 10⁻⁷) H/m

r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

B = [4π × 10⁻⁷ × 0.238)/(2π×0.1)]

B = (4.76 × 10⁻⁷) T

The direction of the magnetic field is in the clockwise direction wrapped around the current-carrying wire.

Hope this Helps!!!
