    Earth's magnetic dipole homework problem

    Sure for part a) B=(mu0*mu)/(2piz^3) = (10^-7*2*8*10^22)/(6371 x 10^3)^3 = 6.2 x 10^-5 T part b) mu=AI , 8x10^22=(pi*(6371x 10^3)^2)(I) solve for I=6.28 x 10^8

    Earth's magnetic dipole homework problem

    So I'm mainly having trouble with part b as I have successfully completed part a. In part b I get an answer of 6.3 x 10 ^8 Amperes which my homework tool flags as incorrect. I'm clueless as to where to go from there or why my approach is wrong?

    Calculating Buoyancy Force & Length of Submerged Cube

    well after hours of crying and thinking why did I go into the advanced high school program I think I've found the answer and it goes like this FBwater+FBoil-Fg=0 1000*0.04*0.04*L*9.81+930*(0.04-h)*0.04*0.04*9.81-0.602=0 L=0.0171 m. I feel good now btw

    Calculating Buoyancy Force & Length of Submerged Cube

    What am I required to change?I think that FBwater is correct and the mass of the cube is correct too I can also obtain the volume of of the part of the cube in oil but I don't know what to do with it

    Calculating Buoyancy Force & Length of Submerged Cube

    The closest thing on my mins is Fnet=FBwater+FBoil-Fgcube=0 but that still doesn't get me the answer

    Calculating Buoyancy Force & Length of Submerged Cube

    well I have seen the problem again and am sorry because I translated it wrong it doesn't say half it just says the lower surface is in water and the upper surface is in oil

    Wooden Cube submerged length and the carry limit

    I don' I don't get what you mean I was trying to get the volume of the submerged part by doing that is the volume correct?
