If we double the radius of the coil keeping the current through it unchanged, the magnetic field on its axis at very very far away points

A

double

B

three times

C

four times

D

one fourth

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

If `rgt gtR`
`B=(mu_(0)NiR^(2))/(2(R^(2)+r^(2))^(3//2))=(mu_(0)NiR^(2))/(2r^(3)(R^(2)//r^(2)+1)^(3//2))=(mu_(0)NiR^(2))/(2r^(3))`
`B prop R^(2) implies B prop("radius of coil")^(2)`
