Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following statements is true about the magnetic field inside a solenoid? (2019)
  • Step 1: Understand what a solenoid is. A solenoid is a coil of wire that creates a magnetic field when an electric current passes through it.
  • Step 2: Recognize that the magnetic field is the area around the solenoid where magnetic forces can be detected.
  • Step 3: Learn that inside a long solenoid, the magnetic field lines are straight and evenly spaced, which means the field is uniform.
  • Step 4: Note that the direction of the magnetic field inside the solenoid is parallel to its length (the axis).
  • Step 5: Remember that this uniformity and direction only applies if the solenoid is long enough compared to its diameter.
