Q2. For same current flowing through a solenoid and a straight conductor, the magnetic field produced by a solenoid is much stronger than the magnetic field produced by a straight current carrying conductor. State one reason to justify this statement.

Answer 1

Dear student.

This is due to the reason that solenoid has more number of turns of the current carrying conductor (i.e., the wire) and the strength of magnetic field produced is directly proportional to the number of turns of the conductor.
