Create Your Own Problem Consider electromagnetic fields produced by high voltage power lines. Construct a problem in which you calculate the intensity of this electromagnetic radiation in W/m2 based on the measured magnetic field strength of the radiation in a home near the power lines. Assume these magnetic field strengths are known to average less than a T. The intensity is small enough that it is difficult to imagine mechanisms for biological damage due to it.

An idea of how much power this is can be obtained by calculating the approximate current responsible for T fields at distances of tens of meters.
