A steady current I flows along an infini...

A steady current `I` flows along an infinitely long hollow cylindrical conductor of radius `R`. This cylinder is placed coaxially inside an infinite solenoid of radius `2 R`. The solenoid has a `n` turns per unit length and carries a steady current `I`. Consider a point `p` at a distance `r` from the common axis . The correct statement(s) is (are)

A

In the region `0 lt r lt R`, the magnetic field is non-zero

B

In the region `R lt r lt 2R,` the magnetic field is along the common axis.

C

In the region `R lt r lt 2R,` the magnetic field is tangential to the circle of radius r, centred on the axis.

D

In the region `r gt 2R`, the magnetic field in non-zero.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, D

(a,d): Due to field of solenoid is non zero in region `0 lt r lt R` and
non zero in region `r gt 2R` due to conductor.
