Question

A very long straight current-carrying wire produces a magnetic field of 20 mt at a distance d from the wire. to measure a field of 5 mt due to this wire, you would have to go to a distance of:_________

Answer 1

The distance covered is 4d.

What is the distance?

• Distance is a measure of how far apart two objects or locations are using numbers.
• The distance can refer to a physical length or an estimate based on other factors in both daily language and physics (e.g. "two counties over").
• The terms "distance from A to B" and "distance from B to A" are frequently used interchangeably.
• A distance function or metric is a technique to describe what it means for components of space to be "near to" or "far away" from each other in mathematics.
• It is a generalization of the idea of physical distance. Distance is a non-numerical unit of measurement in psychology and the social sciences; psychological distance is the separation of an object from itself along dimensions including time, space, and isolation.

We know that

the magnetic field is inversely proportional to distance.

$\dfrac{B_1}{B_2} = \dfrac{D_2}{D_1}$

$\dfrac{20}{5} = \dfrac{D_2}{d}$

$D_2 = 4d$
