The correct Answer is:
To find the length of the wire required to manufacture a solenoid of length \( l \) and self-inductance \( L \), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the formula for self-inductance of a solenoid**: The self-inductance \( L \) of a solenoid is given by the formula: \[ L = \frac{\mu_0 N^2 A}{l} \] where: - \( L \) = self-inductance - \( \mu_0 \) = permeability of free space - \( N \) = number of turns - \( A \) = cross-sectional area of the solenoid - \( l \) = length of the solenoid 2. **Express the number of turns \( N \)**: The number of turns \( N \) can be expressed in terms of the length of the wire \( x \) and the circumference of the solenoid. The circumference \( C \) of the solenoid is given by: \[ C = 2\pi r \] where \( r \) is the radius of the solenoid. Thus, the number of turns \( N \) can be expressed as: \[ N = \frac{x}{2\pi r} \] 3. **Express the cross-sectional area \( A \)**: The cross-sectional area \( A \) of the solenoid can be expressed as: \[ A = \pi r^2 \] 4. **Substitute \( N \) and \( A \) into the self-inductance formula**: Substitute the expressions for \( N \) and \( A \) into the self-inductance formula: \[ L = \frac{\mu_0 \left(\frac{x}{2\pi r}\right)^2 \pi r^2}{l} \] 5. **Simplify the equation**: Simplifying the equation gives: \[ L = \frac{\mu_0 x^2}{4\pi^2 r^2} \cdot \frac{\pi r^2}{l} = \frac{\mu_0 x^2}{4\pi l} \] 6. **Rearranging for \( x \)**: Now, rearranging the equation to solve for \( x \): \[ x^2 = \frac{4\pi l L}{\mu_0} \] Taking the square root gives: \[ x = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi l L}{\mu_0}} \] ### Final Answer: The length of the wire required to manufacture the solenoid is: \[ x = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi l L}{\mu_0}} \]
