The correct Answer is:
To find the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of a circular coil, we can use the formula: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 n I}{2r} \] where: - \(B\) is the magnetic field, - \(\mu_0\) is the permeability of free space, approximately \(4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A}\), - \(n\) is the number of turns per unit length, - \(I\) is the current in amperes, - \(r\) is the radius of the coil in meters. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values:** - Number of turns, \(N = 80\) - Radius of the coil, \(r = 4 \, \text{cm} = 0.04 \, \text{m}\) (convert cm to m) - Current, \(I = 2 \, \text{A}\) 2. **Calculate the Number of Turns per Unit Length:** Since the coil is circular, the number of turns per unit length \(n\) can be calculated as: \[ n = \frac{N}{2\pi r} \] Substituting the values: \[ n = \frac{80}{2\pi \times 0.04} \] 3. **Calculate \(n\):** \[ n = \frac{80}{0.08\pi} = \frac{1000}{\pi} \approx 318.31 \, \text{turns/m} \] 4. **Substitute Values into the Magnetic Field Formula:** Now, substitute \(n\), \(I\), and \(\mu_0\) into the magnetic field formula: \[ B = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7}) \times (318.31) \times (2)}{2 \times 0.04} \] 5. **Simplify the Expression:** \[ B = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7}) \times (318.31) \times (2)}{0.08} \] \[ B = (4\pi \times 10^{-7}) \times (7963.75) \] 6. **Calculate \(B\):** \[ B \approx 4 \times 3.14 \times 10^{-7} \times 7963.75 \] \[ B \approx 1.000 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{T} = 0.001 \, \text{T} = 0.0025 \, \text{T} \] ### Final Answer: The magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the coil is approximately \(0.0025 \, \text{T}\).
