    Cancelling the Earths magnetic field

    I talked with the instructor and found my error -- I just needed to adjust for units the question required. I usually catch this, but not this time. Thanks for your replies anyways. It's always good to know there is a safety line!

    Cancelling the Earths magnetic field

    That was my bad. My actual equation looks like: (5E-5*5)/(1.257E-6*9000)=0.02209 which is wrong according to Mastering physics. Doesn't like 2.2E-2 either.

    Cancelling the Earths magnetic field

    Homework Statement A researcher would like to perform an experiment in a zero magnetic field, which means that the field of the Earth must be cancelled. Suppose the experiment is done inside a solenoid of diameter 1.0{\rm m} , length 5.0{\rm m} , with a total of 9000 turns of wire. The...

    How many potassium ions pass through if the ion channel opens for 1.0 {\rm ms}?

    Homework Statement The biochemistry that takes place inside cells depends on various elements, such as sodium, potassium, and calcium, that are dissolved in water as ions. These ions enter cells through narrow pores in the cell membrane known as ion channels. Each ion channel, which is formed...
