Moving Charges and Magnetism

  1. A coil of one turn is made of a wire of certain length and then from the same length a coil of two turns is made. If the same current is passed in both the cases, then the ratio of the magnetic inductions at their centres will be
    1. 2 : 1 ​
    2. 1 : 4 ​
    3. 4 : 1
    4. 1 : 2
Correct Option: B

Let ℓ be length of wire.

​Ist case : ℓ = 2πr ⇒ r =
2πr

B =
μ0In
=
μ0I × 2π
=
μ0
[∵ n = 1]......(1)
2r2ℓ

​2nd Case : ℓ = 2(2πr') ⇒ r' =

B' =
μ0In
=
0
= 4
0
= 4B , using (1)(where n = 2)
2
2
