The correct Answer is:
To find the magnetic field inside the core of a toroid, we can use the formula: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 n I}{2 \pi r} \] where: - \(B\) is the magnetic field, - \(\mu_0\) is the permeability of free space (\(4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A}\)), - \(n\) is the number of turns per unit length, - \(I\) is the current in amperes, - \(r\) is the radius at which we want to find the magnetic field. ### Step 1: Calculate the average radius of the toroid The average radius \(r\) can be calculated as: \[ r = \frac{\text{inner radius} + \text{outer radius}}{2} = \frac{25 \, \text{cm} + 26 \, \text{cm}}{2} = \frac{51 \, \text{cm}}{2} = 25.5 \, \text{cm} = 0.255 \, \text{m} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the number of turns per unit length \(n\) The total number of turns is given as 3500. The circumference of the average radius can be calculated as: \[ \text{Circumference} = 2 \pi r = 2 \pi (0.255) \approx 1.600 \, \text{m} \] Now, we can find \(n\): \[ n = \frac{\text{Total number of turns}}{\text{Circumference}} = \frac{3500}{1.600} \approx 2187.5 \, \text{turns/m} \] ### Step 3: Substitute the values into the magnetic field formula Now, we can substitute the values into the magnetic field formula: \[ B = \frac{(4 \pi \times 10^{-7}) \times (2187.5) \times (11)}{2 \pi (0.255)} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the expression We can simplify the expression: \[ B = \frac{(4 \times 2187.5 \times 11)}{2 \times 0.255} \times 10^{-7} \] Calculating the numerator: \[ 4 \times 2187.5 \times 11 = 96350 \] Now substituting back: \[ B = \frac{96350}{0.51} \times 10^{-7} \approx 188,000 \times 10^{-7} = 1.88 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{T} \] ### Final Answer The magnetic field inside the core of the toroid is approximately: \[ B \approx 1.88 \, \text{mT} \, (\text{milliTesla}) \] ---
