Question

List the factors on which the strength of magnetic field produced by
(a) a current-carrying straight conductor
(b) current carrying solenoid depends.

Open in App
Solution

(1)Magnetic field due to straight conductor at a point B=μoI2πd
So, magnetic field depends on the current flowing and distance (d) of that point.
(2)Magnetic field due to solenoid B=μN il
So, the magnetic field depends on the current flowing, the number of turns in solenoid and length of the solenoid.
