If you were to perform a linear regression of log10(B) vs log10(x) what would you expect the slope to be? The expected relationship between B and x is

B(x) = μoI(2πx)-1

Hello Ekwia, :welcome:

If ##\mu_oI(2\pi x)<< 1## you expect slope 0 and if ##\mu_oI(2\pi x)>> 1## you expect slope ##^{10}\log (2\mu_oI\pi)## ...
In between you get, well, in between !
