A long wire carries a steady curent . It is bent into a circle of one turn and the magnetic field at the centre of the coil is `B`. It is then bent into a circular loop of `n` turns. The magnetic field at the centre of the coil will be

A

nB

B

`n^(2)B`

C

`2nB`

D

`2n^(2)B`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The magnetic field at the centre of circular coil is
`B=(mu_(0)1)/(2R)`
Where r=radius of circle `=1/(2pi) [:'I=2pir]`
`:.B=(mu_(0)I)/2xx(2pi)/I=(mu_(0)//pi)/1`….i
When wire of length l bents into a circular loops of n turns, then `1=nxx2pir'impliesr'=1/(nxx2pi)`
Thus new magetic field `X_(l)=100sqrt(3)Omega=(2pifL)=(mu_(0)Ipi)/1xxn^(2)=n^(2)B` [ From Eq. (i)]
