What current is needed to allow the wire to be suspended


A current carrying wire of length 0.5m is at the Equator. Assuming that the magnetic field of the earth has a magnitude of 5E-5T at the Equator and is parallel to the surface of the Earth and that the current in the wire flows toward East, what current is required to allow the wire to be suspended? Assume the mass of the wire is 0.05 gram.
