    A wire is wound in the form of a solenoid of length l and distance d. When a strong current is passed through a solenoid, there is a tendency to

    A)  increase \[l\] but decrease d

    B)  keep both \[l\] and d constant

    C)  decrease \[l\] but increase d

    D)  increase both \[l\] and d

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     The magnetic field produced due to a current carrying solenoid is \[B={{\mu }_{0}}ni\] It is clear that magnetic field is independent of its length and cross-sectional area. So, when a strong current is passed through it, then both \[l\]and \[d\]remains constant.
