AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of finding the magnetic field \( B \) at various distances from the axis of a solid wire carrying a current, we will use Ampere's Circuital Law. The wire has a radius of 10 cm and carries a current of 5 A uniformly distributed across its cross-section. ### Given: - Radius of the wire, \( R = 10 \, \text{cm} = 0.1 \, \text{m} \) - Total current, \( I = 5 \, \text{A} \) ### (a) Magnetic Field at a distance of 2 cm from the axis ...
