JEE Main2012PhysicsElectromagnetic InductionActual
This question has Statement 1 and Statement 2. Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements. Statement 1: Self inductance of a long solenoid of length L , total number of turns N and radius r is less than ₀ N^2 r^2 L . Statement 2: The magnetic induction in the solenoid in Statement 1 carrying current I is ₀ N I L in the middle of the solenoid but becomes less
Options
- AStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
- BStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.
- CStatement 1 is false, Statement 2 is true.
- DStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1.
Correct answer
B. Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.
Step-by-step solution
Self inductance of a long solenoid is given by L= ₀ N^2 A l Magnetic field at the centre of solenoid B= ₀ N I l So both the statements are correct and statement 2 is correct explanation of statement 1
