Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the relationship between current and magnetic field in a long straight conductor?
  • Step 1: Understand that a long straight conductor is a wire that carries electric current.
  • Step 2: Know that when electric current flows through the wire, it creates a magnetic field around it.
  • Step 3: The strength of this magnetic field depends on the amount of current flowing through the wire.
  • Step 4: If the current increases, the magnetic field strength also increases.
  • Step 5: If the current decreases, the magnetic field strength also decreases.
  • Step 6: This means that the magnetic field is directly proportional to the current.
