Question: Figure 1 : A loop of current creating a magnetic field at the point P Consider the loop of current shown in figure 1 .
Figure : A loop of current creating a magnetic field at the point P
Consider the loop of current shown in figure It carries a current, I, has radius a and is located in the yz plane.
a Calculate the magnetic field magnitude at a point P a distance x away from the center of the circle. This is known as an 'axial distance' from the center of the circle of current. HINT: Remember that even if the magnetic field vector at P points in an arbitrary direction due to dvec there is a radial symmetry due to the current travelling in a circle. points
b What is the direction of the net magnetic field from the whole circle of current? points
c What if there is a charge moving in the hat direction with velocity at the point P what is the force on this particle? points
