Magnetic Effects Of Current Question 56

Question: If the strength of the magnetic field produced 10cm away from a infinitely long straight conductor is $ {{10}^{-5}},Weber/m^{2} $ , the value of the current flowing in the conductor will be [MP PET 1996]

Options:

A) 5 ampere

B) 10 ampere

C) 500 ampere

D) 1000 ampere

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

$ B=\frac{{\mu_{0}}}{4\pi }\cdot \frac{2i}{r} $

Þ $ {{10}^{-5}}={{10}^{-7}}\times \frac{2i}{(10\times {{10}^{-2}})} $

Þ $ i=5A $
