Why is the following situation impossible? The magnitude
Chapter 30, Problem 54(choose chapter or problem)
Why is the following situation impossible? The magnitude of the Earths magnetic field at either pole is approximately 7.00 3 1025 T. Suppose the field fades away to zero before its next reversal. Several scientists propose plans for artificially generating a replacement magnetic field to assist with devices that depend on the presence of the field. The plan that is selected is to lay a copper wire around the equator and supply it with a current that would generate a magnetic field of magnitude 7.00 3 1025 T at the poles. (Ignore magnetization of any materials inside the Earth.) The plan is implemented and is highly successful.
