The electric current in a circular coil of 22 turns produces a magnetic induction B1{B}_{1} at its centre. The coil is unwound and is rewound into a circular coil of 55 turns and the same current produces a magnetic induction B2{B}_{2} at its centre.
The ratio of B2B1\dfrac{{B}_{2}}{{B}_{1}} is:

Options

  1. A52\dfrac{5}{2}
  2. B254\dfrac{25}{4}
  3. C54\dfrac{5}{4}
  4. D252\dfrac{25}{2}

Correct answer

B. 254\dfrac{25}{4}

Step-by-step solution

Magnetic field on the centre of a circular current coil is given by B=Nμ0i2RB = \dfrac{N{\mu}_{0}i}{2R}, here, NN is number of turns, ii is current and RR is radius of loop.

Now, for, N=2N = 2, magnetic field, B1=N1μ0i2R1{B}_{1} = \dfrac{{N}_{1}{\mu}_{0}i}{2{R}_{1}}

For N2=5{N}_{2} = 5

Radius of coil =R2=N1×R1N2= {R}_{2} = \dfrac{{N}_{1} \times {R}_{1}}{{N}_{2}}

Magnetic field, B2=N2μ0i2R2{B}_{2} = \dfrac{{N}_{2}{\mu}_{0}i}{2{R}_{2}}

Thus, the ratio is B2B1=N2N1R1R2=N2N1×N2N1\dfrac{{B}_{2}}{{B}_{1}} = \dfrac{{N}_{2}}{{N}_{1}}\dfrac{{R}_{1}}{{R}_{2}} = \dfrac{{N}_{2}}{{N}_{1}} \times \dfrac{{N}_{2}}{{N}_{1}}

B2B1=254\dfrac{{B}_{2}}{{B}_{1}} = \dfrac{25}{4}
