The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze how the magnetic field inside a toroidal solenoid changes when the current and radius are modified. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Formula for Magnetic Field in a Toroidal Solenoid:** The magnetic field \( B \) inside a toroidal solenoid is given by the formula: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 n I}{2 \pi r} \] where: - \( \mu_0 \) is the permeability of free space, - \( n \) is the number of turns per unit length, - \( I \) is the current flowing through the solenoid, - \( r \) is the radius of the toroid. 2. **Identify Initial Conditions:** Let the initial current be \( I \) and the initial radius be \( R \). The initial magnetic field \( B \) can be expressed as: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 n I}{2 \pi R} \] 3. **Change the Current and Radius:** According to the problem, the current is doubled: \[ I' = 2I \] The radius is also doubled: \[ r' = 2R \] The number of turns \( N \) remains the same, so the number of turns per unit length \( n \) does not change. 4. **Calculate the New Magnetic Field:** Substitute the new values into the magnetic field formula: \[ B' = \frac{\mu_0 n I'}{2 \pi r'} = \frac{\mu_0 n (2I)}{2 \pi (2R)} \] Simplifying this expression: \[ B' = \frac{\mu_0 n (2I)}{4 \pi R} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{\mu_0 n I}{2 \pi R} \] Thus, we find: \[ B' = \frac{1}{2} B \] 5. **Conclusion:** The new magnetic field \( B' \) is half of the original magnetic field \( B \): \[ B' = \frac{B}{2} \] ### Final Answer: The magnetic field produced by the toroidal solenoid after doubling the current and radius, while keeping the number of turns the same, will be \( \frac{B}{2} \).
