Earth's Magnetic Field components in a region

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding the Earth's magnetic field strength in specific locations, particularly in Canadian cities. The user seeks to compare their experimental results with official data from institutes. While information is readily available for American cities, Canadian data appears to be more challenging to locate. Suggestions for resources or methods to obtain this information are welcomed. Accurate local magnetic field data is essential for validating experimental findings.

Any know a way I could find out the Earth's field in the city I live in.

I ask this because I have performed the charge to mass ratio experiment and my prof said it would be nice to compare the field i found for the Earth and the actual field recorded by some institute.

I can find information for American cities but not for Canadian

Thread 'Griffith, Electrodynamics, 4th Edition, Example 4.8. (Second part)'

I am reading the Griffith, Electrodynamics book, 4th edition, Example 4.8. I want to understand some issues more correctly. It's a little bit difficult to understand now. > Example 4.8. Suppose the entire region below the plane ##z=0## in Fig. 4.28 is filled with uniform linear dielectric material of susceptibility ##\chi_e##. Calculate the force on a point charge ##q## situated a distance ##d## above the origin. In the page 196, in the first paragraph, the author argues as follows ...

Thread 'Inducing EMF Through a Coil: Understanding Flux'

Thank you for reading my post. I can understand why a change in magnetic flux through a conducting surface would induce an emf, but how does this work when inducing an emf through a coil? How does the flux through the empty space between the wires have an effect on the electrons in the wire itself? In the image below is a coil with a magnetic field going through the space between the wires but not necessarily through the wires themselves. Thank you.
