In the following diagram,there is a straight wire carrying a current $I$. Consider a circular path with radius $R$ near it. If $\vec{B}_T$ is the tangential component of the magnetic field along the circular path,then find the value of the integral $\oint \vec{B}_T \cdot d\vec{l}$.

  • A
    $\mu_0 I$
  • B
    $\frac{\mu_0 I}{2}$
  • C
    $\mu_0 I / 4$
  • D

$A$ $25\,cm$ long solenoid has radius $2\,cm$ and $500$ total number of turns. It carries a current of $15\,A.$ If it is equivalent to a magnet of the same size and magnetization $\vec M$ (magnetic moment per unit volume),then $\left| {\vec M} \right|$ is

Write the equation for the magnetic field at an inside point of a very long solenoid.

Assertion : If the current in a solenoid is reversed in direction while keeping the same magnitude,the magnetic field energy stored in the solenoid decreases.
Reason : Magnetic field energy density is proportional to the square of the current.
