Problem 5(20 pts)
A rigid wire carrying a current I consists of a semicircle of radius R and two horizontal straight portions as shown
in the figure below. The wire lies in a plane perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B_(0) pointing inside the page.
The straight portions each have length L within the field.

F=IL\times B^(2), Direction = upumus
Magnitode
F^(')=(I)(L)(B_(0)) on each putic
Totul, F=2(ILB_(0))
