A long solenoid has 200 turns per cm and carries a current i. The magnetic field at its centre is 6.28 × 10–² weber/m². Another long solenoid has 100 turns per cm and it carries a current i/3. The value of the magnetic field at its centre is\[1.05\times 10^{-2} weber/m^{2}\]
\[1.05\times 10^{-5} weber/m^{2}\]
\[1.05\times 10^{-3} weber/m^{2}\]
\[1.05\times 10^{-4} weber/m^{2}\]
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the formula for the magnetic field inside a long solenoid:
where:
- is the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid,
- is the permeability of free space,
- is the number of turns per unit length (in meters),
- is the current in the solenoid.
