Magnetic field outside a straight conductor

Product No: P2430500

Principle

A current which flows through one or two neighbouring straight conductors produces a magnetic field around them. The dependences of these magnetic fields on the distance from the conductor and on the current are determined.

Tasks

Determination of the magnetic field

of a straight conductor as a function of the current,
of a straight conductor as a function of the distance from the conductor,
of two parallel conductors, in which the current is flowing in the same direction, as a function of the distance from one conductor on the line joining the two conductors,
of two parallel conductors, in which the current is flowing in opposite directions, as a function of the distance from one conductor on the line joining the two conductors.
