A surveyor is using a magnetic compass 6.9 m below a power line
in which there is a steady current of 84 A. Compared to a typical
value for Earth's magnetic field of 20 µT, the magnetic field due
to the power line is significant and would interfere with the
compass reading. What is the magnetic field at the site of the
compass due to the power line?
