Question

A solenoid of n turns carries current I while another solenoid of same length and of 3 n turns carries current 4I. What is the ratio of the magnetic strengths of the two solenoid ?
  1. 12times
  2. 10times
  3. 7times
  4. none of the above

A
7times
B
10times
C
none of the above
D
12times
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The magnetic field inside a current carrying solenoid is given by
B=μ0nI
where n is the number of turns per unit lenght in the solenoid
I is the current through the wire
Hence BB=nInI=3×4=12
