State the factors on which the magnitude of the magnetic field due to a current-carrying conductor depends and how it depends.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

he magnetic field at a point due to a current-carrying conductor depends on the current through the conductor and the distance of the point from the conductor.
(1) The magnitude of the magnetic field produced at a given point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the current passing through the conductor.
(2) The magnitude of the magnetic field produced by a given current in the conductor decreases as the distance from the conductor increases.
