A measurement was made of the magnetic field due to a tornado, and the result was 16.00 nT to the north. The measurement was made at a position 9.10 km west of the tornado. What was the magnitude (in A) and direction of the current in the funnel of the tornado? Assume the vortex was a long, straight wire carrying a current. A (conventional current) flowing ---Direction--the tornado.

The direction of that field can be found using a right-hand rule. Place the thumb in the direction of the current and wrap the fingers around the wire in the direction of the magnetic field, as shown in the figure below. (i) If the current in the above figure is reversed and now points downward, what is the direction of the magnetic field? clockwise counterclockwise The equation for the strength of the magnetic field due to the current I in a long, straight wire was experimentally found to be the following. B = μ0 I2πr The proportionality constant μ0 is called the permeability of free space. μ0≡4π×10−7 T⋅m/A Calculate the magnetic field (in T) at a distance 6.0 cm away from a wire that carries a current of 0.50 A .
