A circular coil of wire consisting of 100 turns, each of radius 8.0 cmcarries a current of 0.40 A. What is the magnitude of the magneticfield B at the centre of the coil?
Given: The number of turns on the circular coil is 100 , the radius of each turn is 8.0 cm , the current flowing in the coil is 0.40 A .
The magnitude of the magnetic field at the centre of the coil is given as,
| B → | = μ 0 N I 2 r
Where, the number of turns in the circular coil is N , the radius of each turn is r and the current in the coil is I .
By substituting the given values in the above expression, we get
| B → | = ( 4 π × 10 − 7 ) × 100 × 0.4 2 × 0.08 = 3.14 × 10 − 4 T
Thus, the magnitude of the magnetic field is 3.14 × 10 − 4 T .
Given: The number of turns on the circular coil is
