Options

  1. A(i)\left(i\right)
  2. B(ii)\left(ii\right)
  3. C(iii)\left(iii\right)
  4. D(iv)\left(iv\right)

Correct answer

A. (i)\left(i\right)

Step-by-step solution

Using ampere circuital law, ∮B→⋅dl→=μ0I∮ \overset{\to}{B} \cdot \overset{\to}{d l} = {\mu}_{0}I

If an ampere loop is taken inside the hollow cylinder then, ∮B→⋅dl→=μ0×0=0∮ \overset{\to}{B} \cdot \overset{\to}{d l} = {\mu}_{0} \times 0 = 0

If an ampere loop is taken of radius rrsuch that r≥Rr \ge Rthen,

∮B→⋅dl→=μ0I∮ \overset{\to}{B} \cdot \overset{\to}{d l} = {\mu}_{0}I
B(2πr)=μ0IB\left(2\pi r\right) = {\mu}_{0}I
B=μ0I2πrB = \dfrac{{\mu}_{0}I}{2\pi r}

As it can be clearly seen that there is no magnetic field inside the hollow cylindrical metal and outside the cylinder B∝1rB ∝ \dfrac{1}{r}
