MAgnetic fields lab

POST-LAB QUESTIONS 1. In Part 1 you actually calculated the strength of the ambient magnetic field, which could come from a variety of different sources. In addition to the Earth’s magnetic field, list some other sources of the ambient magnetic field in the lab. Which source do you think provides the largest contribution to the overall magnetic field? The sources could be: a) A permanent magnet present in any of the appliance in the lab b) A varying electric fields can also generate Magnetic fields. ¢) The steel and metal beams and the wires going through them on the top of the physics lab might also affect the magnetic field. 2. At what angle of deflection makes the magnetic field strength produced by the coil of wire equal to the ambient magnetic field? A small drawing might be helpful. Hint: see Figure 1.
