Hey,
So if I were doing an experiment in which I have a current carrying coil, at what angle to the Earth's magnetic field would I need to rotate the coil in order to minimize the effect of Earth's field? I was assuming parallel to the direction of the Earth's magnetic field. I assume it has to be perpendicular, parallel, or antiparallel. Any ideas? Thanks!
In this case, the Earth's magnetic field is 58 degrees from the horizontal pointed inward.
