The magnetic dipole moment of Earth has magnitude 8.00 *10^22 J/T. Assume that this is produced by charges flowing in Earth’s molten outer core. If the radius of their circular path is 3500 km, calculate the current they produce.
Tutorial Exercise
In an experiment designed to measure the Earth's magnetic field using the Hall effect, a copper bar 0.415 cm
thick is positioned along an east-west direction. Assume n = 8.46 x 1028 electrons/m3 and the plane of the
bar is rotated to be perpendicular to the direction of B. If a current of 8.00 A in the conductor results in a Hall
voltage of 5.52 x 10-12 v, what is the magnitude of the Earth's magnetic field at this location?
The magnitude of a magnetic field a distance 2.0 µm from a wire is 36.0 × 10-4 T How much current is flowing through the wire. Assume the wire is the only contributor to the magnetic field.
