उत्तर

- Consider the case r > a. The Amperian loop, labelled 2, is a circle concentric with a cross-section. For this loop, L = 2πr
Using Ampere circuital Law, we can write,
B(2πr) = μ0I, `B = (mu_0I)/(2pir), B ∝ 1/r` (r > a) - Consider the case r < a. The Amperian loop is a circle labelled 1. For this loop, taking the radius of the circle to be r, L = 2πr
Now the current enclosed Ie is not I but is less than this value. Since the current distribution is uniform, the current enclosed is,
`I_e = I((pir^2)/(pia^2)) = (Ir^2)/a^2` Using Ampere’s law, B(2πr) = `mu_0 (Ir^2)/a^2`
B = `((mu_0I)/(2pia^2))r`
B ∝ r (r < a)

Write Maxwell's generalization of Ampere's circuital law. Show that in the process of charging a capacitor, the current produced within the plates of the capacitor is `I=varepsilon_0 (dphi_E)/dt,`where ΦE is the electric flux produced during charging of the capacitor plates.
Electron drift speed is estimated to be of the order of mm s−1. Yet large current of the order of few amperes can be set up in the wire. Explain briefly.
A long straight wire of a circular cross-section of radius ‘a’ carries a steady current ‘I’. The current is uniformly distributed across the cross-section. Apply Ampere’s circuital law to calculate the magnetic field at a point ‘r’ in the region for (i) r < a and (ii) r > a.
In Ampere's \[\oint \vec{B} \cdot d \vec{l} = \mu_0 i,\] the current outside the curve is not included on the right hand side. Does it mean that the magnetic field B calculated by using Ampere's law, gives the contribution of only the currents crossing the area bounded by the curve?
