Question: A stiff wire 3 9 . 5 cm long is bent at a right angle in the middle. One section lies along the z axis

A stiff wire 39.5 cm long is bent at a right angle in the middle. One
section lies along the z axis and the other is along the line y=2x
in the xy plane. A current of 21.5 A flows in the wire-down the z
axis and out the line in the xy plane. The wire passes through a
uniform magnetic field given by vec(B)=(0.318i)T.
Part A
Determine the magnitude and direction of the total force on the wire.
Correct
Part B
\theta =
\deg below the negative y-axis
