Hold a small piece of paper (e. g., an index card) flat in front of you. the paper can be thought of as a part of a larger plane surface.
a. what single line could you use to specify the orientation of the plane of the paper (i. e., so that someone else could hold the paper in the same, or in a parallel, plane)?
b. the area of a flat surface can be represented by a single vector, called the area vector a. what does the direction of the vector represent? what would you expect the magnitude of the vector to represent?
c. place a large piece of graph paper flat on the table. describe the direction and magnitude of the area vector, a, for the entire sheet of paper. describe the direction and magnitude of the area vector, da, for each of the individual squares that make up the sheet.
d. fold the graph paper twice so that it forms a hollow triangular tube. can the entire sheet be represented by a single vector with the characteristics you defined above? if not, what is the minimum number of area vectors required?
e. form the graph paper into a tube as shown. can the orientation of each of the individual squares that make up the sheet of graph paper still be represented by da vectors as inabove? explain.
f. what must be true about a surface or a portion of a surface in order to be able to associate a single area vector a with that surface?

Along, straight wire with 3.0 a current flowing through it produces magnetic field strength 1.0 t at its surface. if the wire has a radius r, where within the wire is the field strength equal to 36.0% of the field strength at the surface of the wire? assume that the current density is uniform throughout the wire
