At a certain location in the northern hemisphere, the earth.s magnetic field has a magnitude of `42 mu T` and points downwards at `53^(@)` to the vertical. Calculate the flux through a horizontal surface of area 2.5 `m^(2)`. [`sin 53^(@)` = 0.8]

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`phi_(B)=BA cos theta`
`= 42 xx 10^(-6) xx 2.5 xx cos 53^(@)=63 mu Wb`
