The drawing shows a wire composed of three segments, AB, BC, and CD. There is a current of I = 2.4 A in the wire. There is also a magnetic field B (magnitude = 0.19 T) that is the same everywhere and points in the direction of +z axis. The lengths of the wire segments are LAB = 1.4 m, LBC = 0.3 m, and LCD = 0.3 m. Find the magnitude of the force that acts on each segment. FAB = FBC = FCD =

The drawing shows a wire composed of three segments, A B , B C , and C D . There is a current of I = 2.4 A in the wire. There is also a magnetic field B (magnitude = 0.19 T ) that is the same everywhere and points in the direction of + z axis. The lengths of the wire segments are L A B = 1.4 m , L B C = 0.3 m , and L C D = 0.3 m . Find the magnitude of the force that acts on each segment.
F A B = i F B C = i F C D = i
