Force on currents: An L-shaped metal machine part is made of two equal-length segments that are perpendicular to each other and carry a 4.50-A current as shown in the figure. This part has a total mass of 3.80 kg and a total length of 3.00 m, and it is in an external 1.20-T magnetic field that is oriented perpendicular to the plane of the part, as shown. What is the magnitude of the NET magnetic force that the field exerts on the part? 
A) 8.10 N
B) 11.5 N
C) 16.2 N
D) 22.9 N
E) 32.4 N
