When trying to determine the maximum magnetic field created by a 15-turn circular coil, you measure the maximum current to be 0.6±0.05 A, and the radius of your coil to be 0.04±0.004 m. If these are the only uncertainties, what is the uncertainty in the maximum magnetic field due to just the uncertainty in the current

B = (2.8 ± 0.5) 10⁻⁴ T

Explanation:

In this exercise we can approximate the system to a coil, so the magnetic field is

           B = μ₀ N / L I

Where N is the number of turns, I the current and L the length

Uncertainty is

           ΔB = dB / dI ΔI + dB / dN Δn + dB / dL ΔL

In this case the errors of number of turns are zero

                  Δn =  0

            ΔB = dB / dI ΔI + dB/DL ΔL

            ΔB = μ₀ N / L ΔI + μ₀ N I /L² ΔL

            ΔB/B =    ΔI/I + ΔL/L²

            ΔB = (ΔI/I + ΔL/L)  B

The value of the magnetic field is

               B = 4 π 10⁻⁷ 15 / 0.04 0.6

               B = 2.83 10⁻⁴ T

the uncertainty is

              ΔB =  ( 0.05/0.6 + 0.004/0.04) 2.83 10⁻⁴

              ΔB =  0.52 10⁻⁴ T

The result is

           B = (2.8 ± 0.5) 10⁻⁴ T

a.) travels faster in solids because the particles are closer together.

probably not the "magnets"in the magnet, so to speak, are thought to be electrons orbiting in shells. vurrent loops two sides to the loop
