Electricity and magnetism (magnitude of current flowing)

AI Thread Summary
To determine the current flowing through a tube with a given area and magnetic field, the relationship between magnetic field strength, current, and geometry must be applied. The magnetic field (B) is influenced by the permeability of free space (μ0) and the current (I) flowing through the tube. For the toroidal solenoid, the magnetic field inside can be calculated using the formula B = (μ0 * I) / (2π * r), where the number of turns affects the overall magnetic field strength. The discussion highlights confusion regarding the impact of the number of turns on the magnetic field and the calculation of current in the tube. Understanding these principles is essential for solving problems related to electricity and magnetism.

If the area of a tube is 0.0000283 m, with moving ions contributing to a magnetic field of 44.0x10^-4 T. What is the current flowing through the tube? [permeability of free space 'mu subzero'= 4∏x10^-4].

I don't have a clue of how to start attacking this problem, have a genius professor, but horrible professor.

radius is 3.0mm
 
A 1000-turn toroidal solenoid has a central radius of 4.2 cm and is carrying a current of 1.7 A. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid at the central radius? (μ0=4∏×10^-7 T ∙ m/A) r= 4.2cm= 0.042m

B=(μ0)(I)/(2∏)(r) ⇔ (4∏×10^-7)(1.7)/(2∏)(0.042) ⇔ 1.43x10^-8 T? Or does the 1000-turn toroidal affects in the magnetic field in some sort of a way?
 
Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Trying to understand the logic behind adding vectors with an angle between them'
My initial calculation was to subtract V1 from V2 to show that from the perspective of the second aircraft the first one is -300km/h. So i checked with ChatGPT and it said I cant just subtract them because I have an angle between them. So I dont understand the reasoning of it. Like why should a velocity be dependent on an angle? I was thinking about how it would look like if the planes where parallel to each other, and then how it look like if one is turning away and I dont see it. Since...
