Sample Problems about Magnetic Forces

You need a Java-capable browser such as Netscape 2 for Windows or Netscape 3 for Macintosh to be able to work with these problems. Solve the problem and enter your solution using the scrollbars. An x scrollbar value of -1 means a force to the left, while 1 means a force to the right. Similarly for y (-1 for down and 1 for up) and z (-1 for into the screen and 1 for out of the screen). Ignore end effects and assume that all currents are equal in magnitude.
