Question

list the factors on which the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying straight conductor depends.

Answer 1

Answer

• Intensity of current :- In a current carrying straight conductor, magnetic field depends on the intensity of current. More the current, greater the strength of magnetic field.
• Direction of current :- The direction of magnetic field depends on the direction of current. Right hand thumb rule helps to determine the direction of magnetic field.
• Distance from the conductor :- As the distance from the conductor increases, the magnetic Fields strength decreases as it's inversely proportional to the distance.

Answer 2

Answer:

Factors on which the magnetic field produced by a  current carrying conductor depends

(a) current passing through the conductor.  

(b) distance of the magnetic compass from the conductor.  

Right Hand Thumb Rule gives the direction of magnetic field.
