Question
Two circular coils of current-carrying wire have the same magnetic moment. The fi rst coil has a radius of 0.088 m, has 140 turns, and carries a current of 4.2 A. The second coil has 170 turns and carries a current of 9.5 A. What is the radius of the second coil?
Solution
The first step in solving 21 problem number 44 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Two circular coils of current-carrying wire have the same magnetic moment. The fi rst coil has a radius of 0.088 m, has 140 turns, and carries a current of 4.2 A. The second coil has 170 turns and carries a current of 9.5 A. What is the radius of the second coil?
From the textbook chapter Magnetic Forces and Magnetic Fields you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
