Homework Statement
Determine the Full Width Half Maximum (FWHM) using the single coil equation and fitting parameters. The FWHM is the measure of how broad (wide) a signal is before it loses half of its intensity. In this case, its a measure of the distance spanned before the magnetic field magnitude is halved.
Homework Equations
radius of loop (R) : 10.5cm = 0.105m
distance from point charge (z) : 20cm = 0.20cm
magnetic field strength (B) = 0.1366 mT
N, number of loops: only did with 1 coil, so I assume 1?
I, current: 2 A
The Attempt at a Solution
I do not quite understand what it means by fitting paramaters? Is that in reference to the radius, current and other values? I don't understand what I'm supposed to solve for. Any guidance is appreciated, thank you!
NOTE/EDIT: This question is not homework, it is for a lab, I just need guidance on how to do it.
