WE charge a horizontal flat ring of copper wire, center O, with excess 
electrons.
When we rotate the ring about vertical axis thru O and BECAUSE it has 
resistance SOME of the electrons collide with the lattice. 
In contradistinction to this, if we send a current thru the wire the electrons 
diffusing past a fixed point are 1.6 10^18 per amp

How does the B field of the moving charged ring compare to that of the 
stationary-with-current ring
B1=B2 times what function of resistance?
