A long solenoid of length \(L\) has a mean diameter \(D\). It has \(n\) layers of winding of \(N\) turns each. If it carries a current \(I\), the magnetic field at its centre will be

  1. A proportional to \(D\)
  2. B inversely proportional to \(D\)
  3. C independent of \(D\)
  4. D proportional to \(L\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) independent of \(D\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Magnetic field due to solenoid is independent of diameter \(\left(\because B=\mu_{0} n I\right)\)
