The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the magnetic field on the axis of a solenoid, we can use the formula for the magnetic field inside a long solenoid, which is given by: \[ B = \mu_0 \cdot n \cdot I \] where: - \( B \) is the magnetic field, - \( \mu_0 \) is the permeability of free space (\( 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A} \)), - \( n \) is the number of turns per unit length of the solenoid, - \( I \) is the current flowing through the solenoid. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Length of the solenoid, \( L = 50 \, \text{cm} = 0.5 \, \text{m} \) - Radius of cross-section, \( r = 1 \, \text{cm} \) (not needed for this calculation) - Number of turns, \( N = 1000 \) - Current, \( I = 5 \, \text{A} \) - Permeability of free space, \( \mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A} \) 2. **Calculate the number of turns per unit length (n):** \[ n = \frac{N}{L} = \frac{1000 \, \text{turns}}{0.5 \, \text{m}} = 2000 \, \text{turns/m} \] 3. **Substitute the values into the magnetic field formula:** \[ B = \mu_0 \cdot n \cdot I \] \[ B = (4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A}) \cdot (2000 \, \text{turns/m}) \cdot (5 \, \text{A}) \] 4. **Calculate the magnetic field:** \[ B = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \cdot 2000 \cdot 5 \] \[ B = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \cdot 10000 \] \[ B = 4\pi \times 10^{-3} \, \text{T} \] 5. **Use the value of \(\pi \approx 3.14\) to find the final answer:** \[ B \approx 4 \cdot 3.14 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{T} = 12.56 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{T} = 1.256 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{T} \] ### Final Answer: The magnetic field on the axis near the center of the solenoid is approximately \( 1.256 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{T} \) or \( 12.56 \, \text{mT} \).
