The magnetic moment of the Earth is approximately
8.00 × 1022 A · m2.
Imagine that the planetary magnetic field were caused by the complete magnetization of a huge iron deposit with density 7 900 kg/m3 and approximately
8.50 × 1028 iron atoms/m3.
(a) How many unpaired electrons, each with a magnetic moment of
9.27 × 10−24 A · m2,
would participate?
(b) At two unpaired electrons per iron atom, how many kilograms of
iron would be present in the deposit?
No. of unpaired electrons = Total Magnetic moment/magnetic moment of each unpaired electron
No. = 8*10^22/(9.27*10^-24)
No = 8.63*10^45
Each iron atom has two unpaired electrons, so the number of iron atoms required is
= 8.63*10^45/2 = 4.315*10^45
B.
Mass = No. of participating iron atoms*density/Volume
Mass = 4.315*10^45*7900/(8.5*10^28)
Mass = 4.01*10^20 kg

(1). A particular paramagnetic substance achieves 10.0% of its saturation magnetization when placed in a magnetic field of 5.00 T at a temperature of 4.00 K. The density of magnetic atoms in the sample is 8.00 x 1027 atoms/m3, and the magnetic moment per atom is 5.00 Bohr magnetons. Calculate the Curie constant for this substance. (2). The magnetic moment of the Earth is approximately 8.00 x 1022 A∙m2. a. If this were caused by the complete magnetization of a...
Suppose that the magnetic dipole moment of Earth is 9.7 x 1022 ?/T (a) If the origin of this magnetism were a magnetized iron sphere at the center of Earth, what would be its radius? (b) What fraction of the volume of Earth would such a sphere occupy? The radius of Earth is 6.37 x 106 m. Assume complete alignment of the dipoles. The density of Earth's inner core is 14 g/cm3. The magnetic dipole moment of an iron atom...
The earth's magnetic moment is 8 x 1022 A-m2. If that moment were created by a loop of wire going around the earth (r = 6378 km), what current would need to go through the wire in A? The wire loop would be on the equator. True or false? Why? Whether on the equator or close to the equator, which direction would the current travel? Why?

From Elements of Electromagnetics 6th Edition by Sadiku 8.18 The earth has a magnetic moment of about 8 X 1022 A · m² and its radius is 6370 km. Imagine that there is a loop around the equator and determine how much current in the loop would result in the same magnetic moment.
Earth has a magnetic dipole moment of 8.0 × 1022 J/T. (a) What current would have to be produced in a single turn of wire extending around Earth at its geomagnetic equator if we wished to set up such a dipole? Could such an arrangement be used to cancel out Earth's magnetism (b) at points in space well above Earth's surface or (c) on Earth's surface? Round your answer (a) to 3 significant digits.
