Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(2.77 \,\times 10^{-8} {T}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I_{\text {avg }}=\frac{B_{0}^{2} C}{2 \mu_{0}} \& \frac{1}{\mu_{0}}=\epsilon_{0} C^{2}\)

\(I=\frac{B_{0}^{2}}{2} \in_{0} C^{3}\)

\(B_{0}=\sqrt{\frac{2 I}{\epsilon_{0} C^{3}}}\)

\(B_{0}=2.77 \times 10^{-8}\, {T}\)
