Question

A technician wraps wire around a tube of length 33 cm having a diameter of 8.1 cm. When the windings are evenly spread over the full length of the tube, the result is a solenoid containing 550 turns of wire.

(a) Find the self-inductance of this solenoid.
 mH
(b) If the current in this solenoid increases at the rate of 6 A/s, what is the self-induced emf in the solenoid?
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

The length of the tube where a technician wraps wire around it is l = 33 cm

The diameter of the tube is d = 2r = 8.1 cm

The number of turns of wire around the tube is N = 550 turns

The permittivity of free space is μ0 = 4π×10-7 H/m

The rate of current increases in the solenoid is didt = 6 A/s
