Answer:
A.
Explanation:
NEAR THE CENTER OF TECTONIC PLATES.
Using Ampere's Law, the magnetic field produced inside this solenoid is given by
B = uo N I / h
where uo is the vacuum permeability, N is the number of turns in the solenoid and h is the length of the solenoid. Earth's magnetic field is around 50 microteslas in North America thus the current needed in the solenoid is
I = B h / (uo N) = (50 E-6 ) (4) / ((4 pi E-7)(6000) ) = 0.026 A
I = 26 mA
So you need a current of around 26 mA.
Stopped at the end of the tracks by a spg-damper system, as shown in fig. 1
The vector, the x-component and the y-component form a rectangle triangle where the vector is the hypothenuse and the x and y components are the two sides.
Calling

the angle between the vector and the horizontal direction (x), the two sides are related to

by

where vy and vx are the two components on the y- and x-axis. Using vx=10 and vy=3 we find

And so the angle is
