I have a right angled triangle hyp=10,and angle=60deg.I need to find how much magnetic field in Tesla passes through the hyp(ie a wire in magnetic field) at this angle.I have tried 10*(sin60deg)=8.66T.My tutor says its 10*(cos60 deg)=5T.The field comes from left to right.As the opposite side of the triangle is the height(opp 60 deg) and adjacent the length am I right?Any help Appreciated.
I don't quite follow what you are doing.
Normally, magnetic flux needs area that the wire sweeps through in a given time, if you are working induction problems. Either the wire is moving,or the magnetic field is changing with time.
If the wire is moving in a constant magnetic field, find the area swept by the wire per unit time,
if the magnetic field is changing, then the wire has to be enclosing an area to get an induced current.
Tesla is magnetic field intensity (B)times area.
