Question: An infinitely long single wire with current I 1 = 5.5 A and a rectangular wire loop with current I 2 = 0.85 A are
An infinitely long single wire with current I 1 = 5.5 A and a rectangular wire loop with current I 2 = 0.85 A are in the same plane as shown. The dimensions of the loop are a = 0.011 m and b = 0.134 m. The infinite wire is parallel to side AD of the loop and at a distance d = 0.17 m from it. 
Part (a) Express the magnitude of the magnetic force F ad , from I 1 on wire AD in terms of I 1 , I 2 , d and the loop dimensions. ![]()
Part (b) Calculate the numerical value of F ad in N.

Part (c) Express the magnitude of the magnetic force F bc , from I 1 on wire BC in terms of I 1 , I 2, a, b and d. ![]()
