A circular coil has radius '$r$', number of turns '$N$' and carries a current '$I$'. Magnetic flux density '$B$' at its centre is:
  • (a)$B = \mu_0 NI$
  • (b)$B = \mu_0 NI / 2r$
  • (c)$B = \mu_0 NI / 4\pi r$
  • (d)$B = \mu_0 NI / 4r$

Answer

Answer

Correct option: (b)

Answer: (b) $B = \mu_0 NI / 2r$ The field at the centre of a circular coil of $N$ turns is $B = \mu_0 NI/2r$.
