At a distance of 10 cm from a long staright wire carrying a current I, the magnetic field is 0.04 T. At a distance of 40 cm from the wire, the magnetic field will be

A

`0.01 T`

B

`0.04 T`

C

`0.16 T`

D

`0.02 T`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Here `r_1 = 10cm = 0.1 m, r_2 = 40 cm = 0.4 m and B_1 = 0.04 T`
`:. B_2 = (B_1 r_1)/(0.4) = 0.01 T`
