Chapter 25, Problem 7CQ

The power lines that run through your neighborhood carry alternating currents that reverse direction 120 times per second. As the current changes, so does the magnetic field around a line. Suppose you wanted to put a loop of wire up near the power line to extract power by “tapping" the magnetic field. Sketch a picture of how you would orient the coil of wire next to a power line to develop the maximum emf in the coil. (Note that this is dangerous and illegal, and not something you should try.)
