The power of sunlight reaching each square meter of the Earth's surface on a clear day in the tropics is close to 1 000 W. On a winter day in Manitoba, the power concentration of sunlight can be 100 W/m2. Many human activities are described by a power per unit area on the order of 10^2 W/m2 or less. (a) Consider, for example, a family of four paying $66 to the electric company every 30 days for 600 kWh of energy carried by electrical transmission to their house, which has value of the magnetic field 5.00 km from the antenna and (b) state how this value compares with the surface magnetic field of the Earth.
