The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to understand how the magnetic induction (magnetic field) at the center of a coil changes when the number of turns in the coil changes. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Magnetic Induction Formula**: The magnetic induction \( B \) at the center of a circular coil can be expressed using the formula: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0 n I}{2R} \] where: - \( B \) is the magnetic induction, - \( \mu_0 \) is the permeability of free space, - \( n \) is the number of turns, - \( I \) is the current, - \( R \) is the radius of the coil. 2. **Given Values**: - For the initial coil with 4 turns, the magnetic induction \( B_1 = 32 \, T \). - Thus, we can write: \[ B_1 = \frac{\mu_0 \cdot 4 \cdot I}{2R_1} \] 3. **Rewinding the Coil**: - When the coil is unwound and rewound into a single turn, the number of turns \( n \) becomes 1. - The radius of the new coil \( R_2 \) will be different, but we need to find the new magnetic induction \( B_2 \). 4. **Relating the Two Coils**: - The total length of wire remains the same when the coil is unwound and rewound. - The length of wire used in the first coil is \( L_1 = 2\pi R_1 \cdot 4 \) (for 4 turns). - The length of wire used in the second coil is \( L_2 = 2\pi R_2 \cdot 1 \) (for 1 turn). - Setting these equal gives: \[ 2\pi R_1 \cdot 4 = 2\pi R_2 \cdot 1 \implies R_2 = 4R_1 \] 5. **Calculating the New Magnetic Induction**: - Now substituting \( R_2 \) back into the formula for \( B_2 \): \[ B_2 = \frac{\mu_0 \cdot 1 \cdot I}{2R_2} = \frac{\mu_0 \cdot I}{2(4R_1)} = \frac{\mu_0 \cdot I}{8R_1} \] 6. **Relating \( B_1 \) and \( B_2 \)**: - We know from our first equation: \[ B_1 = \frac{\mu_0 \cdot 4 \cdot I}{2R_1} \implies B_1 = \frac{2\mu_0 \cdot I}{R_1} \] - Thus, we can express \( B_2 \) in terms of \( B_1 \): \[ B_2 = \frac{B_1}{4} = \frac{32}{4} = 8 \, T \] ### Final Answer: The magnetic induction at the center of the single-turn coil is \( 8 \, T \).
