The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the magnetic flux density at a distance \( \frac{d}{2} \) from a long straight current-carrying conductor, we can use the formula for the magnetic field around a long straight conductor, which is given by: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi d} \] where: - \( B \) is the magnetic flux density, - \( \mu_0 \) is the permeability of free space, - \( I \) is the current flowing through the conductor, - \( d \) is the distance from the conductor. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the formula for magnetic flux density**: The magnetic flux density \( B \) at a distance \( d \) from a long straight conductor is given by: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi d} \] 2. **Substitute the distance \( d \) with \( \frac{d}{2} \)**: We need to find the magnetic flux density at a distance \( \frac{d}{2} \): \[ B' = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi \left(\frac{d}{2}\right)} \] 3. **Simplify the expression**: When we simplify the equation, we get: \[ B' = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi \cdot \frac{d}{2}} = \frac{\mu_0 I}{\pi d} \] 4. **Relate \( B' \) to \( B \)**: We can relate \( B' \) to the original magnetic flux density \( B \): \[ B' = 2 \cdot \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi d} = 2B \] 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the magnetic flux density at a distance \( \frac{d}{2} \) from the conductor is: \[ B' = 2B \] ### Final Answer: The value of the magnetic flux density at a distance \( \frac{d}{2} \) is \( 2B \).
