Part A
You want to get an idea of the magnitude of magnetic fields produced by overhead power lines. You
estimate that a transmission wire is about 12 m above the ground. The local power company tells you that
the line operates at 12 kV and provide a maximum of 60 MW to the local area.
Estimate the maximum magnetic field you might experience walking under such a power line, and compare to the Earth's field. [For an ac current, values are rms, and the magnetic field will be changing.]
Express your answer using two significant figures.
