12th Class Physics Magnetism Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Moving Charges and Magnetism

  • question_answer
    Assertion (A): The magnetic field at the ends of a very long current carrying solenoid is half of that at the centre.
    Reason (R): Magnetic field within a sufficiently long solenoid is uniform.

    A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

    B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

    C) A is true but R is false

    D) A is false and R is true

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Option [b] is correct
    Explanation: Magnetic field inside a solenoid is \[\operatorname{B}={{\mu }_{0}}ni\]
    Magnetic field at the end of a solenoid is\[1/2{{\mu }_{0}}ni\]
    So, the assertion is true.
    Magnetic field within a sufficiently long solenoid is uniform. So reason is also true. But it does not explain the assertion.
