Question

The strength of magnetic field due to a straight current-carrying conductor, at a given distance, increases with increase in the:

  1. The temperature of the conductor
  2. Length of the conductor
  3. Strength of the current
  4. Both (a) and (c)

hintHint:

The strength of the magnetic field around a current-carrying conductor is directly proportional to the current and inversely proportional to the distance from the wire that surrounds it.

The correct answer is: Strength of the current


    The strength of the magnetic field due to a straight current-carrying conductor, at a given distance, increases with an increase in the strength of the current.
    • A straight current-carrying conductor creates a magnetic field of concentric circles.
    • The strength of the magnetic field depends on the power/ strength of the current applied.
    • The strength of the magnetic field increases as the strength of the current increases.
