Answer:

Magnetic field, B = 0.88 T

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The dimension of rectangular surface is 2.80 cm by 3.15 cm. The area of rectangular surface is,
A=8.82\ cm^2=0.000882\ m^2

Angle between the uniform magnetic field and the horizontal,
\theta=31

Magnetic flux,
\phi=4* 10^(-4)\ Wb

Let B is the magnitude of magnetic field in which the rectangular surface is placed. It is given by :


\phi=BA\ cos\theta


\theta is the angle between magnetic field and the area

Here,
\theta=90-31=59^(\circ)


B=(\phi)/(A\ cos\theta)


B=(4* 10^(-4))/(0.000882* cos(59))

B = 0.88 T

So, the magnitude of magnetic field is 0.88 T. Hence, this is the required solution.
