Question:
Figure ??a?? shows two wires, each carrying a current. Wire 1 consists of a circular arc of radius R and two radial lengths; it carries current i1 = 2.0 A in the direction indicated. Wire 2 is long and straight; it carries a current i2 that can be varied; and it is at distance R/2 from the center of the arc. The net magnetic field B due to the two currents is measured at the center of curvature of the arc. Figure ??b?? is a plot of the component of B in the direction perpendicular to the figure as a function of current i2. The horizontal scale is set by i2s = 1.00 A. What is the angle subtended by the arc?
