Respuesta :

Given :

Solenoid 2 has twice the radius and six times the number of turns per unit length as solenoid 1.

To Find :

The ratio of the magnetic field in the interior of 2 to that in the interior of 1.

Solution :

We know, magnetic field in the interior of a solenoid is given by :

[tex]B = \dfrac{\mu ni}{L}[/tex]

Let, length of solenoid 2 is L.

Therefore, length of solenoid 1 is 6L.

[tex]B_a=\dfrac{\mu (6n)i}{L}\\\\B_b = \dfrac{\mu n i}{L}[/tex]

Dividing [tex]B_a[/tex] by [tex]B_b[/tex] :

[tex]\dfrac{B_a}{B_b}=\dfrac{\dfrac{\mu (6n)i}{L}}{\dfrac{\mu n i}{L}}\\\\\dfrac{B_a}{B_b}=6[/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is C. 6.
