A current \(i\) ampere flows along an infinitely long straight thin-walled tube, then the magnetic induction at any point inside the tube at a distance \(r\) from centre is (A) Infinite (B) Zero (C) \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \cdot \frac{2 i}{r}\) (D) \(\frac{2 i}{r}\)

Short Answer

Expert verified
The magnetic induction at a point inside the tube at a distance r from the center is \(\frac{\mu_{0}i}{2 \pi r}\). However, none of the given options matches this derived value, indicating that the question is faulty with no correct answer among the provided options.

Step by step solution

01

Review Ampere's Law

Ampere's law states that the closed-line integral of the magnetic field (B) around any closed loop in the direction that is tangent to the loop is equal to \(\mu _{0}\) times the current enclosed by the loop. Mathematically, Ampere's Law can be expressed as: \[ \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{l} = \mu_{0}I_{enclosed} \]
02

Choose an Amperian Loop

We need to choose an appropriate amperian loop (a closed-loop) for integration. Since the magnetic field due to the current in the thin-walled tube has cylindrical symmetry, we'll choose a circular loop of radius r as the amperian loop. Let's call this loop L.
03

Calculate the Magnetic Field

According to Ampere's law, we can calculate the magnetic field inside the tube as follows: \[ \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{l} = \mu_{0}I_{enclosed} \] Since B is uniform along the tangent to the amperian loop L, we can remove it from the integral: \[ B \oint d\mathbf{l} = \mu_{0}I_{enclosed} \] As loop L has a circumference of 2Ï€r, we have: \[ B(2 \pi r) = \mu_{0}I_{enclosed} \] Now, we need to find the current enclosed by the Amperian loop L: \[ I_{enclosed} = i \] (Had we taken a circular Amperian loop outside the tube, we would have had no current enclosed by the loop, and subsequently a magnetic induction of zero) Now, let's solve for B: \[ B = \frac{\mu_{0}i}{2 \pi r} \] Comparing with the options mentioned earlier, we find that neither of the given options matches the derived value for magnetic induction. The question appears faulty having none of the given options as the correct answer.

A coil having an area \(A_{0}\) is placed in a magnetic field which changes from \(B_{0}\) to \(4 B_{0}\) in time interval \(t\). The average EMF induced in the coil will be (A) \(\frac{3 A_{0} B_{0}}{t}\) (B) \(\frac{4 A_{0} B_{0}}{t}\) (C) \(\frac{3 B_{0}}{A_{0} t}\) (D) \(\frac{4 B_{0}}{A_{0} t}\)

A rectangular coil of 100 turns and size \(0.1 \mathrm{~m} \times 0.05 \mathrm{~m}\) is placed perpendicular to a magnetic field of \(0.1 \mathrm{~T}\). The induced EMF when the field drops to \(0.05 \mathrm{~T}\) is \(0.05 \mathrm{~s}\) is (A) \(0.5 \mathrm{~V}\) (B) \(1.0 \mathrm{~V}\) (C) \(1.5 \mathrm{~V}\) (D) \(2.0 \mathrm{~V}\)

Net force on a current carrying loop kept in uniform magnetic field is zero and the torque on the loop \(\vec{\tau}=\vec{M} \times \vec{B}\), where \(M\) and \(B\) are magnetic dipole moment and magnetic field intensity, respectively. If it is free to rotate, then it will rotates about an axis passing through its centre of mass and parallel to \(\vec{\tau}\). Potential energy of the loop is given by \(U=-\vec{M} \cdot \vec{B}\). Assume a current carrying ring with its centre at the origin and having moment of inertia \(2 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~kg}-\mathrm{m}^{2}\) about an axis passing through one of its diameter and magnetic moment \(\vec{M}=(3 \hat{i}-4 \hat{j}) \mathrm{Am}^{2}\). At time \(t=0\), a magnetic field \(\vec{B}=(4 \hat{i}-3 \hat{j}) T\) is switched on. Then Torque acting on the loop is (A) Zero (B) \(25 \hat{k} \mathrm{Nm}\) (C) \(16 \hat{k} \mathrm{Nm}\) (D) \(10 \hat{k} \mathrm{Nm}\)

In an oscillating \(L-C\) circuit, the maximum charge on the capacitor is \(Q\). The charge on the capacitor when the energy is stored equally between the electric and magnetic field is (A) \(\frac{Q}{2}\) (B) \(\frac{Q}{\sqrt{2}}\) (C) \(\frac{Q}{\sqrt{3}}\) (D) \(\frac{Q}{3}\)

The EMF induced in a 1 millihenry inductor in which the current changes from \(5 \mathrm{~A}\) to \(3 \mathrm{~A}\) in \(10^{-3}\) second is (A) \(2 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~V}\) (B) \(8 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~V}\) (C) \(2 \mathrm{~V}\) (D) \(8 \mathrm{~V}\)
