Figure 29-49 shows two very long straight wires (in cross section) that each carry a current of directly out of the page. Distance and distance . What is the magnitude of the net magnetic field at point P, which lies on a perpendicular bisector to the wires?

One long wire lies along an xaxis and carries a current of in the positive xdirection. A second long wire is perpendicular to the xyplane, passes through the point , and carries a current of in the positive zdirection. What is the magnitude of the resulting magnetic field at the point?
A student makes a short electromagnet by winding of wire around a wooden cylinder of diameter. The coil is connected to a battery producing a current ofin the wire. (a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment of this device? (b) At what axial distance d will the magnetic field have the magnitude(approximately one-tenth that of Earth’s magnetic field)?
The current-carrying wire loop in Fig. 29-60a lies all in one plane and consists of a semicircle of radius , a smaller semicircle with the same center, and two radial lengths. The smaller semicircle is rotated out of that plane by angle, until it is perpendicular to the plane (Fig.29-60b). Figure 29-60c gives the magnitude of the net magnetic field at the center of curvature versus angle . The vertical scale is set by. What is the radius of the smaller semicircle?

In Figure, two long straight wires are perpendicular to the page and separated by distance . Wire 1 carries into the page. What are (a) magnitude and (b) direction (into or out of the page) of the current in wire 2 if the net magnetic field due to the two currents is zero at point P located at distance from wire 2?
