A wire along the xx -axis carries a current of 3.50 A3.50 \text{ A} in the negative direction. Calculate the force (expressed in terms of unit vectors) on a 1.00 cm1.00 \text{ cm} section of the wire exerted by these magnetic fields a. B=−(0.65 T)j^\mathbf{B} = -(0.65 \text{ T})\hat{\mathbf{j}} b. B=+(0.56 T)k^\mathbf{B} = +(0.56 \text{ T})\hat{\mathbf{k}} c. B=−(0.31 T)i^\mathbf{B} = -(0.31 \text{ T})\hat{\mathbf{i}} d. B=+(0.33 T)i^−(0.28 T)k^\mathbf{B} = +(0.33 \text{ T})\hat{\mathbf{i}} - (0.28 \text{ T})\hat{\mathbf{k}} e. B=+(0.74 T)j^−(0.36 T)k^\mathbf{B} = +(0.74 \text{ T})\hat{\mathbf{j}} - (0.36 \text{ T})\hat{\mathbf{k}}
