3. The electric current I flows on the conductor wire. What is the magnetic induction at the center of the circle (P)? (µ_o = 4π.10^-7 Wb.m^-1.A^-1)

Known :

Radius of circle (r) = 6 cm = 6 x 10^-2 meters

Electric current (I) = 8 Ampere

Permeability of a vacuum (µ_o) = 4π x 10^-7 Wb.A^-1 m^-1

Wanted: the magnetic induction at the center of the circle (P)

Solution :

360^o – 90^o = 270^o. 270^o / 360^o = 3/4 then 270^o = 3/4 circumference

The magnetic field formula at the center of the coil with a number of loops:

B = magnetic field, N = number of windings, I = electric current, r = radius of curvature

In the above problem, there is only one winding so that N is removed from the equation. The wire coil on the above problem is not 1 circle but 3/4 circle. The above formula is adjusted again with this problem :

4. Current 2 A flows on a circular wire like the picture. What is the magnitude and direction of magnetic induction at point P if the radius of circle 4π cm.

Known :
