A solenoid of length 0.5 m has a radius of 1 cm and is made up of 'm' number of turns. It carries a current of 5 A. If the magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid is 6.28 10-3 T then the value of m is .
Answer
500
Solution
B = 0nI = 0 mlI
m = Bl 0I = 6.28 10-3 0.54 10-7 5
= 3.14 10-36.28 10-6 = 500
B inside a long solenoid does not depend on its radius
Answer: 500
