A long wire carrying a steady current is bent into a circle of single turn. The magnetic field at the centre of the coil is B. If it is bent into a circular loop of radius 'r' having n turns, the magnetic field at the centre of the coil for same current is
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
Let the length of the wire be .
For a single turn circular loop of radius , the length is .
The magnetic field at the centre is .
When the same wire is bent into a circular loop of turns of radius , the length is .
The new magnetic field at the centre is .
Substituting , we get .
