Young domestic chickens have the ability to orient themselves in the earth's magnetic field. Researchers used a set of two coils to adjust the magnetic field in the chicks' pen. (Figure 1) shows the two coils, whose centers coincide, seen edge-on. The axis of coil 1 is parallel to the ground and points to the north; the axis of coil 2 is oriented vertically. Each coil has 27 turns and a radius of 1.4 m. At the location of the experiment, the earth's field had a magnitude of 5.6 × 10 ³ T and pointed to the north, tilted up from the horizontal by 61°.

Please answer with detailed solution. I have attached the formulas and references that we use. A wire of length 0.5 m carries a current 0f 20 A. In the presence of a magnetic field of 0.5 T, the wire experiences a magnetic force of 4 N. What is the angle between the wire and the magnetic field?
A proton travels at a speed 1.1 × 107 m/s perpendicular to a magnetic field. The field provokes the proton to move in a circular path of radius 0.975 m. What is the field strength, in tesla?
Two long, straight, parallel wires are shown in the figure below. The current in the wire on the left is triple the current in the wire on the right.

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 1.15A, what is the magnitude of the magnitude of the magnetic field (in ?μT, or micro-Tesla) a distance of 0.88m away from the wire?
In Figure 3 a circular loop of wire of radius R is initially located in the plane of the page while a uniform Magnetic field of magnitude 5 T is coming out the page in the 2 = (0,0,1) direction (represented by the "x"'s). At time t = 0 the loop begins to rotate in uniform circular motion such that the top begins moving out of the page and the bottom moves into the page with a frequency of 5 seconds (i.e. the loop has the same orientation as that at t=0). For arbitrary time t > 0 I. II. III. IV. y Determine the unit normal of the area of the loop, ñ, as a function of time. Determine the vector describing the area of the loop, A. Determine the magnetic flux moving through the loop as a function of time. If current is allowed to move through the loop, determine the induced EMF in the conducting loop and the associated induced Electric field (make sure to explain the direction of the Electric field.)

A 1000-turns coil encloses a rectangular area of dimensions 38.0 cm and 28.0 cm. The coil lies in the plane of the page and carries a clockwise current of 4.7 A.

A circular closed, conducting loop of radius r is in the presence of a uniform magnetic field that points into the page, shown in the figure below. The strength of the magnetic field changes as a function of time, which is described by the following expression: B(t) = B1t? + Bo. You may assume that B1 and Bo are both positive numbers. The direction of the magnetic field stays constant. The total resistance of the conducting loop is R. Use this information to solve parts (a) - (d). Write your answers in terms of known quantities such as: r, R, B1, Bo, and t.

An electron in a magnetic field moves along a circle with a radius of 25.4 m with a speed that follows: v(t)=V0e−bt where b = 0.56 s-1and V0 = 170 m/s. I need to find the angular acceleration at t=3.7s, but I don't know how I'm supposed to get that becuase the formula that we have says that it is the second derivative of angular position, but when I calculate angular position all I get is 6.57516 radians. I don't understand how I'm supposed to take a derivative of that since it doesn't have any variables. I don't know if it is needed for this, but I already calculated the centripetal acceleration as 18.0446m/s^2
