(b) Magnetic field lines can be entirely confined within the core of a toroid, but not within a straight solenoid. Why ? |
| Answer» Solution :(b) If we assume MAGNETIC field LINES of a straight SOLENOID to be confined within the solenoid then `oint overset(to) (B) . overset(to)(d) a NE 0` for a closed surface around its two ends which is against Gauss.s law for magnetism. Hence, magnetic field lines of a solenoid cannot be confined within itself. | |
