Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The magnetic flux through the square is given by the formula:
Φ = B*A*cosθ
where B is the magnetic field strength, A is the area of the square, and θ is the angle between the magnetic field direction and the normal to the plane of the square.

In this case, the magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of the square, so θ = 90° and cosθ = 0. Therefore, the magnetic flux through the square is:
Φ = B*A*cosθ = 0

Therefore, the correct answer is A) 1.1 T ∙ m.
