Question
A solenoid has a 3 cm x 3 cm square cross-section, 90 turns and a length of 125 cm. It sits with its central axis in a vertical position, where the positive z direction is upward. A 12A clockwise current flows through the solenoid.
a) What is the magnetic field inside the solenoid? Give the answer as a vector.
b) If this solenoid sits in a 15 mT magnetic field in the negative-x direction. What is the torque (vector) on the solenoid?
