In 1962 measurements of the magnetic field of a large tornado were made at the Geophysical Observatory in Tulsa, Oklahoma. If the magnitude of the tornado's field was B = 1.50 × 10 8 T pointing north when the tornado was 9.00 km east of the observatory, what current was carried up or down the funnel of the tornado Model the vortex as a long, straight wire carrying a current.
