A rectangular loop of wire with sides H = 25 cm and w = 54 cm carries current 12 = 0.256 A. An infinite straight wire, located a distance L 36 cm from segment ad of the loop as shown, carries current 11 = 0.672 A in the positive y-direction.
1) What is Fad,x, the x-component of the force exerted by the infinite wire on segment ad of the loop?
2)What is Fbc,x, the x-component of the force exerted by the infinite wire on segment bc of the loop?
3)What is Fnet,y, the y-component of the net force exerted by the infinite wire on the loop?
4)Another infinite straight wire, aligned with the y-axis is now added at a distance 2L = 72 cm from segment bc of the loop as shown. A current, I3, flows in this wire. The loop now experiences a net force of zero.
What is the magnitude of I3?
