Answer:

18.6012339739 A

Explanation:

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m

L = Length of wire = 55 cm

N = Number of turns = 4000

I = Current

Magnetic field is given by

B=\dfrac{\mu_0NI}{L}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{BL}{\mu_0N}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{0.17\times 0.55}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 4000}\\\Rightarrow I=18.6012339739\ A

The current necessary to produce this field is 18.6012339739 A
