Question

Name the factors which affect the strength of the magnetic field at a point near the current-carrying conductor.

Answer 1

The factors affecting the strength of the magnetic field at a point near the current-carrying conductor are:

1. The magnitude of current passing the conductor: Larger the current passing the conductor, the stronger the magnetic field and vice-versa.
2. Distance of the point from the conductor: The larger the distance from the current-carrying conductor, the weaker the magnetic field produced and vice-versa.
