<span>The primary reason a light bulb emits light is due to the heating of the resistance in the filament of the light bulb. In fact, the power dissipated in a resistor is given by
</span>
<span>where I is the current and R the resistance. The larger the resistance or the current in the resistor, the larger the power dissipated. Due to this dissipation of power, the temperature of the filament becomes very high, and the resistance becomes incandescent, emitting light.</span>

Answer:
d) 1.2 mT
Explanation:
Here we want to find the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 2.5 mm from the axis of the coaxial cable.
First of all, we observe that:
- The internal cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm can be treated as a conductive wire placed at the axis of the cable, since here we are analyzing the field outside the radius of the conductor. The current flowing in this conductor is
I = 15 A
- The external conductor, of radius between 3 mm and 3.5 mm, does not contribute to the field at r = 2.5 mm, since 2.5 mm is situated before the inner shell of the conductor (at 3 mm).
Therefore, the net magnetic field is just given by the internal conductor. The magnetic field produced by a wire is given by
where
is the vacuum permeability
I = 15 A is the current in the conductor
r = 2.5 mm = 0.0025 m is the distance from the axis at which we want to calculate the field
Substituting, we find:
