That's a not-bad description of a capacitor.
The rule that is used to get the strength of magnetic field at the center of solenoid (B) is:
B = <span>µ x n x I where:
</span>µ is the permeability of the medium where the solenoid is based. In this problem, the medium is air which means that µ = <span>µ </span><span>o = 4 pi x 10^-7 Tm/A
</span>I is the current passing (I = 4 amperes)
n is the number of turns per unit length (5000 turns)
Substituting in the mentioned equation, we find that:
B = 4 x 3.14 x 10^-7 x 5000 x 4 = 25.132 mT
The air that is inside a ship is much less dense than water. That's what keeps it floating! ... The closer the total density of the ship is to the density of the same volume of water, the greater the amount of the ship that will be in the water.
