- 1. A large power cable carries I = 200 A in a straight line East-West for L = 100 m to a device and returns the same current to the power source in the opposite direction. The return path is also straight and runs parallel to the first path directly above it. Up > North ○ South West- East Device 100 m Current Source Down The cable is made of copper with resistivity po = 17.2×10 Qm and mass density pcu = 8960 kg/m³. The cable has a diameter of d = 8.00 cm. a) What force (magnitude and direction) is exerted on the outgoing (+) cable by the magnetic field of the earth? Use a value of B = 40.0 μT for the earth's field, and assume it points, straight north. [1 point] b) Is there a force between the two cables, and is it attractive or repulsive?
