Explain the effect on the magnetic field produced at a point in a current carrying circularcoil due to : (i) increase in the amount of current flowing through it. (ii) increasein the distance of point from the coil (iii) increase in the number of turns of the coil.

Answer»

Solution :(i) The magnitude of MAGNETIC field produced by a current carrying circular coil at a point is directly proportional to the current flowing through the circular coil . Thus as the amountof current flowing through the circular coil INCREASES, the magnetic field produced at a point in a circular coil increases.
(ii) Magnetude of magnetic field producedat a point in a current carrying circular coil is inversely proportional to the distance of point from the coil. Thus the magnetic field produced at a point decreases as the distance increases from the coil.
(iii) The magnetic field produced by a current carrying WIRE at a given point depends directly on the current passing through it. Therefore, if there is a circular coil having n TURNS, the field produced in n times as that produced by a single turn. This is becausethe current in each circular turn has the same direction, and the field due to such turns then just ADDS up .
