Say there is a wire bent into an equilateral triangle that has sides of length 3.0 cm. It lies in the first quadrant of the x-y plane, with one corner at the origin and one side along the xaxis. A current of 2.0 A runs through the wire, going in the positive x direction through the segment that lies along the x-axis. Use the many step process (the Biot-Savart law) to determine the magnetic field at the center of the triangle. (The center is the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of the sides
