To solve the problem, we need to find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field that can support the weight of a horizontal wire carrying a current. Here are the steps to calculate it: ### Step 1: Calculate the weight of the wire The weight (W) of the wire can be calculated using the formula: \[ W = m \cdot g \] where: - \( m \) is the mass of the wire, - \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity. ...
