A 0.5 m long solenoid has 500 tuns and has a flux density of `2.52 xx 10^-3 T` at its centre. Find the current in the solenoid. Given`mu_0 = 4pi xx 10^-7 H m^-1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`l = 0.5 m `
`N = 500`
`B = 2.52 xx 10^(-3)T`
`B = mu_0 n I`
But `n = N//l`
`therefore B = mu_0 (N)/l l`
`implies 2.52 xx 10^(-3) = 4 pi xx 10^(-7) xx 500/(0.5) xx I`
`implies I = (2.52 xx 10^(-3) xx 0.5)/(4pi xx 10^(-7) xx 500)`
`implies I = 0.201 xx 10^1 A`
`implies 2.01 A`
`therefore I = 2.01 A`
