Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is option 2) i.e. length of the conductor
CONCEPT:
- Magnetic field due to a straight current-carrying conductor: Biot-Savart Law
- Magnetic field B at a radial distance r, due to a wire carrying current is given by:
Where μ0 is the permeability of free space (4π × 10-7 Tm/A), and I is the current intensity.
EXPLANATION:
The magnetic field due to a long straight current-carrying wire is given by:
- Magnetic field B is dependent on the current (I) and radial distance from the wire (r).
- Therefore, the magnetic field is independent of the length of the conductor.
