A wire of length l is used to form a coil. The magnetic field at its centre for a give current in it is minimum if the coil has

A

`4 turn`

B

`2 turn`

C

`1 turn`

D

data is not sufficient

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

(c) `B=(mu_0ni)/(2r)`
`implies l=2pirn, r=1/(2pi n)`
So, `B=(mu_0pi I n^2)/l implies B` is minimum if n=1
