The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the position \( x \) from the center of a current-carrying circular coil where the magnetic field decreases by 5% compared to its value at the center. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Magnetic Field at the Center and on the Axis**: - The magnetic field \( B_0 \) at the center of a circular coil of radius \( R \) carrying current \( I \) is given by: \[ B_0 = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2R} \] - The magnetic field \( B \) at a point on the axis of the coil at a distance \( x \) from the center is given by: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 I R^2}{2(R^2 + x^2)^{3/2}} \] 2. **Setting Up the Equation for 5% Decrease**: - According to the problem, the magnetic field decreases by 5% at the point \( x \): \[ B = B_0 \times (1 - 0.05) = 0.95 B_0 \] 3. **Substituting the Expressions**: - Substituting the expressions for \( B \) and \( B_0 \): \[ \frac{\mu_0 I R^2}{2(R^2 + x^2)^{3/2}} = 0.95 \left(\frac{\mu_0 I}{2R}\right) \] 4. **Canceling Common Terms**: - Cancel \( \frac{\mu_0 I}{2} \) from both sides: \[ \frac{R^2}{(R^2 + x^2)^{3/2}} = 0.95 \cdot \frac{1}{R} \] 5. **Rearranging the Equation**: - Rearranging gives: \[ R^3 = 0.95 (R^2 + x^2)^{3/2} \] 6. **Cubing Both Sides**: - Cubing both sides to eliminate the cube root: \[ R^9 = 0.857375 (R^2 + x^2)^3 \] 7. **Solving for \( x^2 \)**: - To simplify, we can express \( R^2 + x^2 \) in terms of \( R \): \[ R^2 + x^2 = \left(\frac{R^3}{0.857375}\right)^{1/3} \] - This leads to: \[ x^2 = \left(\frac{R^3}{0.857375}\right)^{1/3} - R^2 \] 8. **Finding the Value of \( x \)**: - After calculating, we find: \[ x = \frac{R}{\sqrt{30}} \] ### Final Answer: The position of the point from the center of the coil is: \[ x = \frac{R}{\sqrt{30}} \]
