Question
State the two properties of the magnetic lines of force around a circular coil.
Advertisements
Solution
The important properties are:
(i) The magnetic lines of force near the wire are nearly circular, especially at the points where
the current enters or leaves the coil.
(ii) At the centre of the coil, the lines of force are almost parallel to each other, showing that the magnetic field at the centre or the coil may be considered uniform.
