The magnetic field inside the solenoid is
The magnetic field inside the solenoid is
Options
- Adirectly proportional to its length.
- Bdirectly proportional to current
- Cinversely proportional to current
- Dinversely proportional to total number of turns
Correct answer
B. directly proportional to current
Step-by-step solution
The magnetic field inside a long solenoid is given by the formula:
where is the number of turns per unit length () is the current flowing through the solenoid.
From the formula, it is clear that the magnetic field is directly proportional to the current ().
It is directly proportional to the total number of turns and inversely proportional to the length .
Thus, the magnetic field is directly proportional to the current.
