A Long Straight Very Thin Wire on the Y-Axis Carries

Question 34

Multiple Choice

A long straight very thin wire on the y-axis carries a 10-A current in the positive y-direction. A circular loop 0.50 m in radius, also of very thin wire and lying in the yz-plane, carries a 9.0-A current, as shown. Point P is on the positive x-axis, at a distance of 0.50 m from the center of the loop. What is the magnetic field vector at point P due to these two currents? (μ0 = 4π × 10-7 T ∙ m/A) A long straight very thin wire on the y-axis carries a 10-A current in the positive y-direction.
