Question

6. A particular experiment requires that there is zero magnetic field in the region of the test. To create such a situation, researchers in a lab in Hawaii, where Earth's magnetic field has only a horizontal component, with a magnitude of 83.74 µT. A very long solenoid with 10 turns/meter and 0.6667-m diameter is mounted so its axis is horizontal and with current flow and direction such that its magnetic field is opposite Earth's. The sample is placed on the axis, midway along its length. a) Provide clear justification for how the solenoid's B-field must be oriented within its environment. b) Showing all work, calculate the current that must flow through the wire wrappings of the solenoid.
