A solenoid 2.9 cm in diameter and 15 cm in length has 300 turns and carries a current of 5 A. Calculate the magnetic flux through the circular cross-sectional area of the solenoid.
-->> I tried using the equation B = u(0)NI/L to calculate magnetic field, and then putting this in the formula flux = BNA, where N is number of turns, and A is area (pi*r squared). This didn't work, though.
I'd appreciate some help! Thanks!
