Written Problem: Induction from a falling magnet We have a small magnet with a magnetic moment of m = 0.1 Am2 (remember: magnetic moment is defined as m = IA - see page 932 of book for the definition). We also have coils of wire. The coils are made out of 100 circular loops of a single wire. A single loop has a radius of 10 cm. The thickness of the wire has a circular cross section with a 0.5...
