Explanation Given data: Refer to the Figure P24.20 in the textbook. Radius of each coil is 1 m. Number of turns is 43. Earth’s magnetic field is 5.6 × 10 − 5 T . Angle between the magnetic field and the horizontal is 61 ° . Formula used: Consider the expression for the magnetic field in straight current carrying coil. B = μ 0 N I 2 R (1) Here, I is the current. R is the radius. N is the number of turns. μ 0 is the permeability of free space which has a constant value of 4 π × 10 − 7 T ⋅ m A . Calculation: The magnetic field on the coil 1 is vertical to the ground and magnetic field is acting in north direction so by using right hand rule thumb rule, the current in the coil 1 is counter clockwise. The magnetic field on the coil 2 is parallel to the ground and magnetic field is acting in upward direction so by using right hand rule thumb rule, the current in the coil 2 is counter clockwise. The resultant magnetic field produces by both the coils exactly cancel the earth’s field that is, B earth = B net (2) The resultant magnitude of the net magnetic field is, B net = B 1 2 + B 2 2 + 2 B 1 B 2 cos θ (3) Here, B 1 is the magnetic field of coil 1, B 2 is the magnetic field of coil 2, θ is the angle between the magnetic field and the horizontal. Substitute equation (3) in equation (2), B earth = B 1 2 + B 2 2 + 2 B 1 B 2 cos θ (4) As the radius, number of turns and current in the two coils are equal, so magnetic field of both the coils is equal that is, B 1 = B 2 (5) Substitute equation (5) in equation (4), B earth = B 1 2 + B 1 2 + 2 B 1 B 1 cos θ = 2 B 1 2 + 2 B 1 2 cos θ B earth = 2 B 1 1 + cos θ (6) Substitute equation (1) in equation (6), B earth = 2 ( μ 0 N I 2 R ) 1 + cos θ Substitute 5
