Magnetic fields at two points on the axis of a circular coil at a distance of 0.05m0 . 05m and 0.2m0 . 2m from the centre are in the ratio 8:18: 1. The radius of coil is _______ .

Options

  1. A0.15m0 . 15m
  2. B0.2m0 . 2m
  3. C0.1m0 . 1m
  4. D1.0m1 . 0m

Correct answer

C. 0.1m0 . 1m

Step-by-step solution

We know, the magnetic field on the axis of a current carrying circular ring is given by

B=μ04π2NIA(R2+x2)3/2B = \dfrac{{\mu}_{0}}{4\pi}\dfrac{2NIA}{{\left({R}^{2} + {x}^{2}\right)}^{3 / 2}}

∴B1B2=81=[R2+(0.2)2R2+(0.05)2]3/2∴ \dfrac{{B}_{1}}{{B}_{2}} = \dfrac{8}{1} = {\left[\dfrac{{R}^{2} + {\left(0 . 2\right)}^{2}}{{R}^{2} + {\left(0 . 05\right)}^{2}}\right]}^{3 / 2}

4[R2+(0.05)2]=[R2+(0.2)2]4\left[{R}^{2} + {\left(0 . 05\right)}^{2}\right] = \left[{R}^{2} + {\left(0 . 2\right)}^{2}\right]

4R2−R2=(0.2)2−4×(0.05)24{R}^{2} - {R}^{2} = {\left(0 . 2\right)}^{2} - 4 \times {\left(0 . 05\right)}^{2}

4R2−R2=(0.2)2−(0.1)24{R}^{2} - {R}^{2} = {\left(0 . 2\right)}^{2} - {\left(0 . 1\right)}^{2}

3R2=0.3×0.13{R}^{2} = 0 . 3 \times 0 . 1

R2=(0.1)2⇒R=0.1{R}^{2} = {\left(0 . 1\right)}^{2} ⇒ R = 0 . 1
