SATIS ye. I-A rectangular loop of wirehangs vertically as shown in Fig, 20-14. A magnetic field is directed horizontally,perpendicular to the plane of the loop, and points out of the page as represented by the symbol. The magnetic field is very nearly uniform along. the horizontal portion of wire ab (length L = 10 cm ) which is near the center of the gap of a large magnet producing the field. The top portion of the wire loop is out of the field. The loop hangs from a balance (csads 0 when BO ) which measures a downward magnetic force of F = 3.48 * 107 N when the wire carries a current 1 = 0.245 A ‘What is the magnitude ofthe magnetic field B?
