Two parallel vertical wires (pointing up with respect to the ground) of infinite length are at distance of 0.20 m (as in Problem 3.1). The left wire has a current of 15.0 A flowing upwards, while the right wire has a current of 12.0 A flowing downwards. A -4.0 C charge is at a distance of 0.60 m from the left wire, in the direction of 40 East of North (as in Problem 3.1). The charge is moving with a speed of 1.0% of the speed of light (assume to be 3.0108 m/s), 60 North of West. Find the magnitude and direction of the net magnetic field and magnetic force on the charge. Illustrate the problem and your answer.
