JEE MAIN - Physics (2025 - 29th January Evening Shift - No. 25)

The magnetic field inside a 200 turns solenoid of radius 10 cm is $2.9 \times 10^{-4} ~\mathrm{Tesla}$. If the solenoid carries a current of 0.29 A , then the length of the solenoid is _______ $\pi \mathrm{cm}$.
Answer
8

Explanation

We know, magnetic field due to solenoid, $$B = {\mu _0}nI$$

where, I = current, $$n = {N \over L}$$ = no. of turns per unit length

$$ \Rightarrow B = {{{\mu _0}NI} \over L}$$

$$ \Rightarrow L = {{{\mu _0}NI} \over B} = {{4\pi \times {{10}^{ - 7}} \times 200 \times 0.29} \over {2.9 \times {{10}^{ - 4}}}}$$

$$ \Rightarrow L = 8\pi \times {10^{ - 2}}\,m$$

$$ \Rightarrow L = 8\pi \,cm$$

Hence, answer = 8.
