Answer

$(-0.34 T)\hat{z}$

Work Step by Step

We know that $B=\frac{mg}{IL}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $B=\frac{(0.17)(9.81)}{(11)(0.45)}$ $B=0.34T$ Let us suppose that upward be the +y direction and +x direction towards right then by right hand rule the direction of magnetic field is into the page or along -z direction.
