Question
A wire carrying a current I enters regions of
uniform magnetic
fields. The upper region has a uniform magnetic
field pointing
into the page, while the field points out of the
page in the lower
region. The magnetic fields in both regions have
a magnitude
B. The wire goes straight over a distance L, turn
around with a
semi-circular path of radius R, and goes straight
over a distance
L again before it exits the magnetic field region.
The wire spans
across the two different regions evenly. Find the
net magnetic
force on the wire.
