4. At what distance from a long straight wire carrying a current of 6.0 A is the magnetic
field due to the wire equal to the strength of the earth's field, 5.0 x loe5T?
5. At what speed v should the bar in the figure be moved to produce a current of 1A in the
resistor? Assume B = 2.50 T into the page, R = 6.0 51 and the length of the bar is 1.50 m.

shown. The coil lies in the plane of the page and cames a current of 6.00 A flowing
clockwise around it. If the coil is in a uniform magnetic field of 2.00 x
T, directed
towards the left of the page, what is the magnihlde of the torque on the coil.?
