Chapter 27, Problem 75GP
The power cable for an electric trolley (Fig. 27–56) carries a horizontal current of 330 A toward the east. The Earth’s magnetic field has a strength 5.0 × 10–5 T and makes an angle of dip of 22° at this location. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on a 5.0-m length of this cable.
