Magnetic Field of a Long Straight Wire
< Prev
Next >

A long, straight wire carries a current $$I$$ that is increasing at a constant rate $$\frac{dI}{dt}$$. At a distance $$r$$ from the wire, what is the magnetic field $$B$$ at that point?

A

$$B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r} - \frac{\mu_0 r}{4\pi} \frac{dI}{dt}$$

B

$$B = \frac{\mu_0 r}{2\pi} \frac{dI}{dt}$$

C

$$B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}$$

D

$$B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r} + \frac{\mu_0 \epsilon_0 r}{2} \frac{dE}{dt}$$
