You are performing studies of the possibility of migrating birds using the Earth's magnetic field for navigation. To modify the magnetic field in the brain of a bird, you fit the bird with coils as "caps" and "collars" as shown in the figure below. The data on the coils indicate that they each have 210 n of resistance, a radius of 1.10 cm, and 50 turns of wire. The centers of the coils are separated by 2.15 cm. You wish to create an "Earth-like" magnetic field of 4.0 x 10-5 T at the midpoint of the axis between the coils. Given this data, you need to determine the voltage of the battery (in V) needed to power the coils. V

Two long, parallel wires, each with a mass per unit length of 40 g/m, are supported in a horizontal plane by 6.0-cm-long strings, as shown in Figure P19.72. Each wire carries the same current I, causing the wires to repel each other so that the angle 0 between the supporting strings is 16°. (a) Are the currents in the same or opposite directions? (b) Determine the magnitude of each current.
A solenoid used to produce magnetic fields for research purposes is 2.2 m long, with an inner radius of 79 cm and 3.6 × 104 turns of wire. When the current is 300 A, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field inside of the solenoid, in Tesla? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.

You have learned that a charge moving in an magnetic field can experience a magnetic force. Remarkably, anytime that a charged particle moves that particle produces its own magnetic field! The image below of magnetic compasses forming a circle around a current-carrying wire demonstrates the shape of the magnetic field. The magnetic field lines forms concentric circles around that wire. The strength of the field decreases with increasing distance away from the wire. If the current in the wire is 7.65A, what is the magnitude of the magnitude of the magnetic field (in uT, or micro-Tesla) a distance of 0.87m away from the wire?

Experiments to study vision often need to track the movements of a subject’s eye. One way of doing so is to have the subject sit in a magnetic field while wearing special contact lenses that have a coil of very fine wire circling the edge. A current is induced in the coil each time the subject rotates his eye. Consider an experiment in which a 20-turn, 6.0-mm-diameter coil of wire circles the subject’s cornea while a 1.0 T magnetic field is directed as shown. The subject begins by looking straight ahead. What emf is induced in the coil if the subject shifts his gaze by 5.0° in 0.20 s?
