A tightly wound 100 turns coil of radius 10 cm carries a current of 7 A. The magnitude of the magnetic field at the centre of the coil is (Take permeability of free space as 4 10-7 SI units):
- 44 mT
- 4.4 T
- 4.4 mT
- 44 T
Answer
(3) 4.4 mT
Solution
B = 0 N I2R = 4 10-7 100 72 0.1
= 4 10-7 3500 = 1.4 10-3 T
4.4 10-3 T = 4.4 mT
Answer: (3)
