Q54 / 60 · IAT (IISER) 2018 · Physics

A current of 45 A is passing through an infinitely long wire which lies along the axis of an infinitely long solenoid of radius 1 cm. The magnetic field produced by the solenoid in the direction of the current in the wire is 4 mT. What is the approximate magnitude of the resultant magnetic field at a point 3 mm radially away from the solenoid axis? (Use \(\mu_o=4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~T} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{A}\).)

  • Correct answer
    A
    5 mT
  • B
    1 mT
  • C
    7 mT
  • D
    3 mT

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
