Can you check my solution?PLEASE:)

Homework Statement



Calculate the magnetic flux through a square loop of 2cm x 2cm oriented perpendicular to a magnetic field of 0.5t.


Homework Equations



θ = BA

The Attempt at a Solution



θ = BA = (0.5t)(0.0004m^2) = 2 x 10^-4 Tm^2.

What do you guys think?
Thanks!:blushing:

I think that you should use a capital T for Teslas consistently, particularly in the same equation :devil:

Otherwise it's fine.

Note that you might also use the equivalent unit of Webers (Wb) for the flux.

Wb = Tm2 = Vs
