Hi Ross....
ummmmm lets see in my bizzare way i will try to explain this
you have a stack of post um notes ( 2"w X2"L X 3"h) which have a volume
( cubic " ) but you can only use ( write on) the top piece at a time
there fore you have only an area of 4 square inches available ...
magnetic flux travels thru the core in the confines of the core
dimentions and the core area usable by the flux is just a cross
section of that core
sounds like intergration to me ewww calculus ...
did i say that ?
hope someone else explains it better ;)
