Biot-Savart Law & Circular Coils

The electric current in a circular coil of four turns produces a magnetic induction 32 T at its centre. The coil is unwound and is rewound into a circular coil of single turn, the magnetic induction at the centre of the coil by the same current will be:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. For the same wire, B∝n2B \propto n^2 (radius ∝1/n\propto 1/n).
  2. B′=32×(14)2=2 TB' = 32 \times \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^2 = 2\text{ T}
  3. So the answer is (a) 2 T.
