Ampere's Circuit Law

The document discusses three laws of electromagnetism: 1) Ampere's Circuital Law, which states that the line integral of magnetic field B around a closed loop is equal to the permeability of free space times the current passing through the enclosed area. 2) The magnetic field at the center of a straight solenoid is directly proportional to the number of turns per unit length and the current passing through the solenoid. 3) For a toroidal solenoid or toroid, the magnetic field exists only in the tubular area bound by the coil and is zero inside and outside the toroid. The line integral of B around any loop through the toroid is equal to

Amperes Circuital Law:


The line integral B . dl for a closed curve is equal to 0 times the net current I threading through the area bounded by the curve. B I B . dl = 0 I B I O r

dl

B . dl = 0 I

Current is emerging out and the magnetic field is anticlockwise.

Magnetic Field at the centre of a Straight Solenoid:


S a R

B . dl = 0 I0

(where I0 is the net current threading through the solenoid)

B . dl = B . dl + B . dl + B . dl + B . dl PQ QR RS SP = B . dl cos 0+ B . dl cos 90+ 0 . dl cos 0+ B . dl cos 90 B = 0 n I and 0 I0 = 0 n a I = B dl = B.a


(where n is no. of turns per unit length, a is the length of the path and I is the current passing through the lead of the solenoid)

Magnetic Field due to Toroidal Solenoid (Toroid):

B . dl = 0 I0 B . dl = B . dl cos 0
=B And

dl P
B0

B r O B=0 B=0 Q

dl = B (2 r)

0 I0 = 0 n (2 r) I B = 0 n I

NOTE: The magnetic field exists only in the tubular area bound by the coil and it does not exist in the area inside and outside the toroid. i.e. B is zero at O and Q and non-zero at P.
