oplossing:
360o = 1 omtrek van 'n sirkel. 120o / 360o = 1/3 dan 120o = 1/3 x omtrek of a circle.
The equation of the magnetic field at the center of the coil with several loops :
![]()
B = the magnitude of the magnetic field, N = number of loops, I = electric current, r = radius of curvature
In the above problem, there is only one loop so that N is eliminated from the equation. The wire coil on the above problem is not 1 circle but 1/3 circle :
