The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the radius of a circular wire carrying a current of 4 A that produces a magnetic induction of 1 μT at its center, we can use the formula for the magnetic field at the center of a circular loop of wire. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understand the Formula**: The magnetic field (B) at the center of a circular loop of radius R carrying a current I is given by the formula: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 \cdot I}{2 \cdot R} \] where \( \mu_0 \) is the permeability of free space, approximately \( 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A} \). 2. **Rearrange the Formula**: We need to find the radius \( R \). Rearranging the formula gives: \[ R = \frac{\mu_0 \cdot I}{2 \cdot B} \] 3. **Substitute the Values**: We know: - \( I = 4 \, \text{A} \) - \( B = 1 \, \mu\text{T} = 1 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{T} \) - \( \mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A} \) Substituting these values into the rearranged formula: \[ R = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7}) \cdot 4}{2 \cdot (1 \times 10^{-6})} \] 4. **Calculate the Numerator**: \[ 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \cdot 4 = 16\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A} \] 5. **Calculate the Denominator**: \[ 2 \cdot (1 \times 10^{-6}) = 2 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{T} \] 6. **Combine the Results**: Now substituting back into the equation for R: \[ R = \frac{16\pi \times 10^{-7}}{2 \times 10^{-6}} = \frac{16\pi}{2} \times 10^{-1} = 8\pi \times 10^{-1} \, \text{m} \] 7. **Calculate the Value**: Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ R \approx 8 \cdot 3.14 \times 10^{-1} = 25.12 \times 10^{-1} \, \text{m} = 2.512 \, \text{m} \] 8. **Final Answer**: Rounding off, we get: \[ R \approx 2.5 \, \text{m} \] ### Conclusion: The radius of the circular wire should be approximately **2.5 meters**.
