This video tutorial covers three examples related to magnetic fields and current-carrying wires. The first example demonstrates how to calculate the magnetic field at a certain distance from a wire with a known current. The second example shows how to determine the current required to produce a specific magnetic field at a given distance. The third example explains how to calculate the radius at which a certain magnetic field strength is achieved. The video concludes with a summary and encourages viewers to engage with the content.
