[1/3] Is the lower wire in stable equilibrium? Why? Explain. [1/1] b)
Suggested solutions: Answer: The current in the lower copper wire is I 2 = 691 kA in the same direction as the current above, i.e. I1 = 50.0 A . The equilibrium is unstable. Data: I1 = 50.0 A , d = 20.0 mm = 0.020 m r = 0.010 m ; D = 25.0 cm = 0.250 m ; 0 = 4 10 7 T m / A

Answer: The current in the lower copper wire is I 2 = 691 kA in the same direction as the current above, i.e. I1 = 50.0 A . [1/0] The equilibrium is unstable. This is due to the fact that: if we increase the separation distance D , i.e. if we move the lower copper wire away from the upper one, the magnetic field I1 B = 0 decreases, resulting in the decrease in the 2 D attractive upward magnetic force. But due to the fact that the mass of the wire is unaltered, the resultant force is downward. Therefore the lower wire falls down with an increasing acceleration. [1/0] On the other hand, if we decrease the separation distance D , i.e. if we move the lower copper wire closer to the upper one, the magnetic field I1 B = 0 increases, resulting in the increase in the 2 D attractive upward magnetic force. But due to the fact that the mass of the wire is unaltered, the resultant force is upward. Therefore the lower wire will be attracted to the upper wire. It moves up with an increasing acceleration.
