A solenoid is 1.0 metre long and it has 4250 turns. If a current of 5.0 ampere is flowing through it, what is the magnetic field at its centre [μ0=4π×10−7 weber / amp −m]
A
5.4×10−2 weber /m2
B
C
1.35×10−2 weber /m2
D
0.675×10−2 weber /m2
Answer
Explanation
Solution
Magnetic field at the centre of solenoid
(B)=μ0ni
Where n = Number of turns /meter
∴B=4π×10−7×4250×5=2.7×10−2 Wb/m2
