A long solid conducting cylinder with radius a = 12 cm carries current I1 = 5 A going into the page. This current is distributed uniformly over the cross section of the cylinder. A cylindrical shell with radius b = 21 cm is concentric with the solid cylinder and carries a current I2 = 3 A coming out of the page. 1)Calculate the y component of the magnetic field By at point P, which lies on the x axis a distance r = 41 cm from the center of the cylinders.

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall use Ampere's circuital law to find magnetic field at required point.

The point is outside the circumference of two given wires so whole current will be accounted for .

Ampere's circuital law

B = ∫ Bdl = μ₀ I

line integral will be over circular path of radius r = 41 cm .

Total current I = 5A -3A = 2A .

∫ Bdl = μ₀ I

2π r B = μ₀ I

2π x .41 B = 4π x 10⁻⁷ x 2

B = 2 x 10⁻⁷ x 2 / .41

= 9.75 x 10⁻⁷ T . It will be along - ve Y - direction.
