Understanding the concept of Ampere’s law

Ampere's law states that an induced magnetic field due to the flow of an electric current in the given current region is directly proportional to the size of the current and constant, that is, the permeability of free space or the magnetic permittivity constant. Again, Ampere's circuital law states that the line integral of the magnetic field within a closed region is the sum of the algebraic sum of the current presence in the loop. For the regions with radial distances smaller than the radius of the governing region, an Amperian loop of radius equal to radial distance is considered, while for a radial distance equal to or more than the radius, the electric flux change is similar to that change in the region.

Formulae:

The current density of the wire, J=i/A......(i)

(a) Determining the magnitude of the magnetic field at distance  r=50 mm.

Considering an Amperian loop of radius equal to the given radial distance r=0.05m, the magnitude of the magnetic field within the enclosed region can be given using the given values in equation (ii) as follows:

B2πr=μ0iencB=μ0ienc2πr......(I)

Now, the value of the displacement current within this region can be given using equation (i) as follows:

ienc=id=AJd=Ï€r2Jd......(II)

Now, using the above value of current and the given data in equation (I), the value of the magnetic field can be given as follows:

role="math" localid="1663238393017" B=μ0πr2Jd2πr=μ0πrJd2π=4π×10-7T.m/Aπ50×10-3m20A/m22π=6.3×10-7T

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field at distance,r=0.05m is B=6.3×10-7T.

(b) Determining the rate of change of electric field,  dEdT

The electric flux flowing through a region can be given as:

dϕE=EA=Eπr2

The value of the displacement current using the above value in equation (iii) becomes:

id=ε0πr2dEdt......(III)

When displacement current is uniform, the current density isJd, thus the current is given using equation (II).

Now, comparing equations (II) and (III), the value of the rate of electric field can be given as follows:

dε0πr2dEdt=Jdπr2dEdt=Jdε0=20A/m28.85×10-12C2/N.m2=2.3×1012V/m.s

Hence, the rate of change of the electric field is 2.3×1012V/m.s.

A sample of the paramagnetic salt to which the magnetization curve of Fig 32-14 applies is to be tested to see whether it obeys Curie’s law. The sample is placed in a uniform 0.50T magnetic field that remains constant throughout the experiment. The magnetization M is then measured at temperatures ranging from 10 to 300K. Will it be found that Curie’s law is valid under these conditions?
