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.

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 .
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
