A transmission wire carries a current of 100A. What would be the magnetic field B at a point on the road if the wire is 8 m above the road?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the magnetic field \( B \) at a point on the road due to a transmission wire carrying a current of 100 A and located 8 m above the road, we can use the formula for the magnetic field due to an infinite straight wire: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi d} \] where: - \( B \) is the magnetic field, ...
