What is the current direction in the wire of FIGURE Q29.4? Explain.
What magnetic field strength and direction will levitate the 2.0 g wire in

Although the evidence is weak, there has been concern in recent years over possible health effects from the magnetic fields generated by electric transmission lines. A typical high-voltage transmission line is above the ground and carries a current at a potential of .
a. What is the magnetic field strength on the ground directly under such a transmission line?
b. What percentage is this of the earth’s magnetic field of ?
The Hall voltage across a conductor in amagnetic field is. When used with the same current in a different magnetic field, the voltage across the conductor is. What is the strength of the second field?
The coaxial cable shown in FIGURE P29.56 consists of a solid inner conductor of radius surrounded by a hollow, very thin outer conductor of radius . The two carry equal currents I, but in opposite directions. The current density is uniformly distributed over each conductor.
a. Find expressions for three magnetic fields: within the inner conductor, in the space between the conductors, and outside the outer conductor.
b. Draw a graph of B versus r from to if
