Question

(a) What would have to be the self-inductance of a solenoid for it to store 10.0 $\mathrm{J}$ of energy when a 2.00 -A current runs through it? (b) If this solenoid's cross-sectional diameter is $4.00 \mathrm{cm},$ and if you could wrap its coils to a density of 10 coils/mm, how long would the solenoid be? (See Exercise $30.15 . )$ Is this a realistic length for ordinary laboratory use?

Step 1

0 J and the current running through it is 2.00 A, we can use the formula for energy stored in an inductor: $E = \frac{1}{2}LI^2$. Plugging in the values, we get $10.0 = \frac{1}{2}L(2.00)^2$. Show more…
