    The tail of the earth's magnetic field is stretched by the solar wind. The north field remains pointing away from the earth and the south field pointing toward the earth. The magnetic field at that distance has a magnetic flux density value near 0.25. Gauss. Space is the same medium on both sides of the magnetic field, but fields cannot exist in that way without a current sheet. If the sheet is infinite, use the correct formulas to determine the...

    At the equator, the earth’s field is essentially horizontal; near the north pole, it is nearly vertical. In between, the angle varies. As you move farther north, the dip angle, the angle of the earth’s field below horizontal, steadily increases. Green turtles seem to use this dip angle to determine their latitude. Suppose you are a researcher wanting to test this idea. You have gathered green turtle hatchlings from a beach where the magnetic field strength is 50 μT and...

    Earth's magnetic field at the equator is directed horizontally from south to north and has a strength of 0.310 gauss. Suppose copper wire with mass of 12g and length of 10m could be placed in the B-field without support. Determine the magnitude and direction of the minimum current required in the wire so it just floats above the surface of the Earth. (1 gauss= 10^-4T)

    The tail of the Earth's magnetic field is stretched by the solar wind so that the north field remains pointing away from the earth and the south field pointing towards the earth. The magnetic field at that distance has a magnetic flux density value close to 0.25 Gauss. Space is the same medium on both sides of the magnetic field but fields can not exist in that way without a current sheet. If you assume that the sheet is infinite,...

    Visitor from Con Ed from a galaxy far away have placed a large (black) ring of wire in the arctic circle around the geographic north pole of the earth. Now they are reducing the earth's magnetic field (but not changing its sign) to induce electric current in their large ring of wire. As seen from far above the north pole of the earth, is their current flowing CLOCKWISE or COUNTER-CLOCKWISE?
