6 parallel copper wires of small but finite radii lie in the same plane. The wires are separated by equal distance d and they all carry equal currents in the + z-direction. a. Draw the corresponding diagram and indicate the direction of the magnetic field for each wire. b. Find the magnetic field at point P due to all 6 wires, if P is a distance d to the right of the set of wires.
a) Diagram for the magnetic field for each wire is shown in below
b) net magnetic field at point P is vector sum of magnetic fields produced by all six wires which is
B=2.9×10^-7 (i/d) (-j)
Here -j indicate direction of net field which is along -y axis.
