Although the evidence is weak, there has been concern in recent years over possible health effects from the magnetic fields generated by electric transmission lines. A typical high-voltage transmission line is above the ground and carries a current at a potential of .
a. What is the magnetic field strength on the ground directly under such a transmission line?
b. What percentage is this of the earth’s magnetic field of ?
A small, square loop carries a current. The on-axis magnetic field strength from the loop is . What is the edge length of the square?
You have a 1.0-m-long copper wire. You want to make an N-turn current loop that generates a 1.0 mT magnetic field at the center when the current is 1.0 A. You must use the entire wire. What will be the diameter of your coil?
