If the magnitude of the magnetic field is 6.50 mT at a distance of 12.8 cm from a long straight current carrying wire, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 19.4 cm from the wire

magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 19.4 cm from the wire=4.29mT

Explanation:

According to  Biot-Savart law, A magnetic field generated by a current  carrying wire at a distance is represented as

B=μ₀I/ 2πr

B=magnetic field intensity 1000 mT =1T, 6.50mT = 6.50 X 10^-3T

 μ₀=permeability of free space  4π × 10−7 H/m

I=current intensity

r=radius, 100cm = 1m, 12.8 cm= 12.8 x 10^-2m

6.50 X 10^-3 =  μ₀ x I/ 2 π X 12.8 X 10^-2

I =6.50  X 10 ^-3 X 2π  X  X 12.8 X 10^-2/  4π × 10−7 H/m

I= 4160 A

when the magnetic field is at 19.4 cm from the wire

B=μ₀I/ 2πr

= 4π × 10−7 H/m x4160/ 2π x 19.4 x 10^-2

=0.004288

= 4.29x 10 ^-3T

= 4.29mT

answer: strength i guess

explanation:

photocells convert light energy to electricity
