A coil of nn number of turns is wound tightly in the form of a spiral with inner and outer radii a and bb respectively. When a current of strength II is passed through the coil, the magnetic field at its centre isA coil of n number of turns is wound tightly in the form of a spiral with inner and outer radii a and b respectively.

Options

  2. BμonI2(b−a)\frac{\mu_o n I}{2(b-a)}
  3. C2μ0nIb\frac{2 \mu_0 n I}{b}
  4. DμonI2(b−a)log⁡eba\frac{\mu_o n I}{2(b-a)} \log _e \frac{b}{a}

Correct answer

D. μonI2(b−a)log⁡eba\frac{\mu_o n I}{2(b-a)} \log _e \frac{b}{a}

Step-by-step solution

Consider an element of thickness drd r at a distance rr from the centre of spiral coil. A coil of n number of turns is wound tightly in the form of a spiral with inner and outer radii a and b respectively. Number of turns in coil =n=n Number of turns per unit length =nb−a=\frac{n}{b-a} Number of turns in element dr=dnd r=d n Number of turns per unit length in element drd r i.e., dn=ndrb−ad n=\frac{n d r}{b-a} Magnetic field at its centre due to element drd r is dB=μ0Idn2r=μ0I2n(b−a)drrd B=\frac{\mu_0 I d n}{2 r}=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2} \frac{n}{(b-a)} \frac{d r}{r} ∴B=∫abμ0Indr2(b−a)r=μ0In2(b−a)∫abdrr\therefore \quad B=\int_a^b \frac{\mu_0 I n d r}{2(b-a) r}=\frac{\mu_0 I n}{2(b-a)} \int_a^b \frac{d r}{r} $=\frac{\mu_0 I n}{2(b-a)} \log _e\left(\frac{b}{a}\right)
