Q)
What current in the solenoid would be needed to produce a field of 1.5×10−3 T but in the opposite direction?

Sol:
From question 2, magnetic field of 1.6*10-3, produces 2400 turns
Hence, magnetic field of 1.5*10-3, produces 2250 turns
Magnetic field, B=uo*n*I
Current, I = 1.5*10-3/(4*pi*10-7*2250)= 0.53A
