In a very long pillar of the UNAM administration building, there is an electric wire carrying 25 A direct current to the ceiling. Our campus electricians placed a _gauss meter_ at a distance of just 10 cm to the right of this wire. What will be the reading of the measured magnetic field on the gauss meter?
