The demonstration in LS6.U5 uses a Helmholtz coil, which is a pair of wire coils along a common axis that creates a somewhat uniform magnetic field at the center. To achieve a uniform field, the coil separation is equal to the coil radius. The Helmholtz coil in the demo had a radius and separation of 37cm, and each coil has 400 turns of wire. If we sent 1.5A of current through the wires in the coil, in directions that makes their magnetic fields add (not cancel) in the region between them, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field in T at the center?
