Magnetic Effects Of Current Question 69

Question: The earth’s magnetic induction at a certain point is $ 7\times {{10}^{-5}}Wb/m^{2}. $ This is to be annulled by the magnetic induction at the centre of a circular conducting loop of radius 5 cm. The required current in the loop is [MP PET 1999; MP PMT 2002]

Options:

A) 0.56 A

B) 5.6 A

C) 0.28 A

D) 2.8 A

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$ \frac{{\mu_{0}}}{4\pi }\times \frac{2\pi i}{r}=H\Rightarrow \frac{({{10}^{-7}})\times 2\times 3.142\times i}{0.05}=7\times {{10}^{-5}} $
$ \therefore ,i=\frac{7\times 0.05\times {{10}^{-5}}}{2\times 3.142\times {{10}^{-7}}}=\frac{35}{2\times 3.142}=5.6 $ amp
