directed out of the page. If the distance d = 3.0 m, what is the net magnetic field due to these wires at the origin?
A. (+0.10 i – 0.10 j ) (μT)
B. (+0.10 i + 0.10 j ) (μT)
C. (–0.10 i – 0.10 j ) (μT)
D. (–0.10 i + 0.10 j ) (μT)
E. zero

28. Figure 56 shows three circuits consisting of straight radial lengths and concentric circular arcs (either half-
or quarter-circles of radii r or 2r). The circuits carry the same current in the indicated direction. Rank the circuits
according to the magnitude of the magnetic field produced at the center of curvature (the dot), greatest first.
A) B2, B1, B3
B) B1, B2, B3
C) B3, B2, B1
D) B2, B3, B1
E) B1, B3, B2

29. Figure 59 shows four different sets of wires that cross each other without touching. The magnitude of the
current is the same in all four cases, and the directions of current flow are as indicated. For which configuration
will the magnetic field at the center of the square formed by the wires be equal to zero?
A) 3
B) 1
C) 2
D) 4
E) The filed is equal to zero in all four cases
