To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given information We have a conductor of length \( L = 2.5 \, \text{m} \) carrying a current \( I = 12 \, \text{A} \) in the negative \( y \)-direction. The force \( \vec{F} \) acting on the conductor is given as \( 1.2 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{N} \) in the direction \( \frac{-\hat{i} + \hat{k}}{\sqrt{2}} \). ### Step 2: Define the vectors The length vector \( \vec{L} \) of the conductor can be expressed as: \[ ...
