    Explaining B-Field of N-Star: How Neutron Stars Have Magnetic Fields

    Can someone explain to me how a neutron star (I'm assuming that it has no charge even on the microscopic level) can have a magnetic field? And even if I assume that there is some residual charge left after the collapse, how could the magnetic poles point in significantly different direction...

    What is the current in the other parallel wire when one carries 100A?

    Two parallel wires repel each other with a force per length of 1.00*10^-3 N/m when spaced a distance of 2.50 cm apart. If one wire has a current of 100A, what is the current in the other wire? Don't know where to start this one.

    Estimating B-Field Required to Levitate a Train

    Hey! I am trying to get a rough estimate for the B-field (from a electromagnet) required to levitate a train. Assuming the train is of mass M, the force required to lift it and hold it at a distance D would have to equal M x g right? But how do i estimate the b-field an electromagnet...
