The magnetic moment m⃗ of a current loop is defined as the vector whose magnitude equals the area of the loop times the magnitude of the current flowing in it (m=IA), and whose direction is perpendicular to the plane in which the current flows. Find the magnitude, F, of the force on the loop from Part A in terms of the magnitude of its magnetic moment. Express F in terms of m, I2, a, d, and μ0.

Explanatiocn:

F = I1*a*uo*I2 * ((1/2pi (d-0.5a) - (1/2pi (d+0.5a)) since m=I/A, then I = m/A F = (m/A) * a*uo*I2 * ((1/2pi (d-0.5a) - (1/2pi (d+0.5a)
