7) A long straight wire of radius 1.00x10-3 m (1 mm) carries uniform current density J such that the magnetic field at the edge of the wire is 10-5 T. At what distances from the center of the wire is the magnetic field equal to 5x10-6 T? A) 0.5 and 2 mm. B) 2 mm only. C) 0.5 mm only. D) 0.25 and 2 mm. E) 0.25 mm and 2 mm

Respuesta :

Answer:A)0.5 and 2 mm

Explanation:

Given

radius R of wire is 1 mm

magnetic Field at edge(surface) [tex]=10^{-5} T[/tex]

Magnetic Field at a distance r' from Center is [tex]B'=5\times 10^{-6} T[/tex]

and we know

[tex]B=\frac{\mu _0I}{2\pi r}[/tex]

where [tex]I= current [/tex]

[tex]\mu _o=[/tex]Permeability of free space

[tex]r=[/tex]distance from center

For [tex]r=R[/tex]

[tex]10^{-5}=\frac{\mu _0I}{2\pi R}[/tex]---1

For [tex]r=r'[/tex]

[tex]5\times 10^{-6}=\frac{\mu _0I}{2\pi r'}[/tex]---2

Divide 1 and 2

[tex]\frac{10^{-5}}{0.5\times 10^{-5}}=\frac{r'}{R}[/tex]

[tex]r'=2 R=2 mm [/tex]

If r is inside the wire then

[tex]B=\frac{\mu _0rI}{2\pi R^2}[/tex]

for [tex]r=R[/tex]

[tex]10^{-5}=\frac{\mu _0R\cdot I}{2\pi R^2}[/tex]---3

for [tex]r=r"[/tex]

[tex]5\times 10^{-6}=\frac{\mu _0r"I}{2\pi R^2}[/tex]----4

Divide 3 and 4

[tex]2=\frac{R}{r"}[/tex]

[tex]r"=0.5 mm[/tex]
