Question

The magnetic field at a distance r from a long wire carrying current “I” is B Tesla. The magnetic field at a distance 3r is.

  1. B over 3
  2. B over 2
  3. B
  4. 3B

hintHint:

The magnetic field at a distance r from a long wire carrying current “I” is B Tesla. The magnetic field at a distance of 3r is B/3.

The correct answer is: B over 3


    B 𝝰 1 over d
    d = distance from the wire
    if d = r
    B1 𝝰 1 over r
    d = 3r
    B2 𝝰 fraction numerator 1 over denominator left parenthesis 3 r right parenthesis end fraction
    fraction numerator B subscript 2 over denominator B 1 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator r over denominator 3 r end fraction

    B subscript 2 over B subscript 1 equals 1 third
    B subscript 2 equals B subscript 1 over 3 equals B over 3
