Question

A single string of wire has a resistance of . If the wire is connected to a power source, what is the strength of the magnetic field away from the wire?

Tap to reveal answer

Answer

So this is all about the magnetic field strength around a current carrying wire.

The equation for this is:

But you must use Ohm's Law in order to find the current in the wire.

Since the wire has of resistance and the voltage through the wire is , that means the current in the wire is .

Being sure to change into , plug everything in and get the answer, which is
