Question 188 of 276

A tightly wound long solenoid carries a current of 1.5 A . An electron is executing uniform circular motion inside the solenoid with a time period of 75 ns . The number of turns per metre in the solenoid is ……\ldots\ldots -.
[Take mass of electron
me=9×10−31 kg\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{e}}=9 \times 10^{-31} \mathrm{~kg}, charge of electron ∣qe∣=1.6×10−19C\left|\mathrm{q}_{\mathrm{e}}\right|=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C},
μ0=4π×10−7 N A2,1 ns=10−9 s]\left.\mu_0=4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \frac{\mathrm{~N}}{\mathrm{~A}^2}, 1 \mathrm{~ns}=10^{-9} \mathrm{~s}\right]

Show answer and solution

Answer: 250

Since time period of a revolving charge is 2πmqB\frac{2 \pi m}{q B}
Where
B=\mathrm{B}= magnetic field
due to a solenoid
=μ0nI=\mu_0 \mathrm{nI}
$\begin{aligned}

& \therefore \mathrm{T}=\frac{2 \pi \mathrm{~m}}{\mathrm{q}\left(\mu_0 \mathrm{nI}\right)} \\

& 75 \times 10^{-9}=\frac{(2 \pi)\left(9 \times 10^{-31}\right)}{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times \mathrm{n} \times 1.5} \\

& \mathrm{~N}=250

\end{aligned}$
