The current in the windings of a toroidal solenoid is $2.400 \mathrm{~A}$. There are 500 turns, and the mean radius is $25.00 \mathrm{~cm} .$ The toroidal solenoid is filled with a magnetic material. The magnetic field inside the windings is found to be 1.940 T. Calculate (a) the relative permeability and (b) the magnetic susceptibility of the material that fills the toroid.

Key Concepts

Ampère's Law

Ampère's Law relates the integrated magnetic field around a closed loop to the electric current passing through the loop. It is fundamental to determining the magnetic field generated by current-carrying conductors, especially in configurations like solenoids and toroids, where the symmetry of the system simplifies the evaluation of the magnetic field.

Toroidal Solenoids

A toroidal solenoid is a coil of wire wound in a doughnut shape that produces a magnetic field largely confined to its interior. The geometry of a toroid minimizes external magnetic fields and allows a more uniform field inside, making it an important configuration for studying magnetic circuits and the effects of magnetic materials when inserted into the core.

Magnetic Permeability

Magnetic permeability is a property of a material that indicates the ability of the material to support the formation of a magnetic field within itself. It relates the magnetic field strength to the magnetic flux density in the material and is a key parameter in the design and analysis of magnetic devices.

Relative Permeability

Relative permeability is a dimensionless ratio that compares the permeability of a material to the permeability of free space (vacuum). It quantifies how much more (or less) a material can become magnetized compared to a vacuum, providing critical insight into the material's magnetic properties.

Magnetic Susceptibility

Magnetic susceptibility is a measure of how much a material will become magnetized in an applied magnetic field. It is directly related to the relative permeability by the relation ? = ?r - 1, where ? is the magnetic susceptibility and ?r is the relative permeability. This parameter is essential for understanding and predicting the magnetic response of materials.
