Answer: The magnetic field at a point 1.0 cm from the central axis of the solenoid is 0.0276 T.

Explanation:

Given: Length = 0.50 m

No. of turns = 500

Current = 22 A

Formula used to calculate magnetic field is as follows.

[tex]B = \mu_{o}(\frac{N}{L})I[/tex]

where,

B = magnetic field

[tex]\mu_{o}[/tex] = permeability constant = [tex]4\pi \times 10^{-7} Tm/A[/tex]

N = no. of turns

L = length

I = current

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

[tex]B = \mu_{o}(\frac{N}{L})I\\= 4 \pi \times 10^{-7} Tm/A \times (\frac{500}{0.5 m}) \times 22\\= 0.0276 T[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that magnetic field at a point 1.0 cm from the central axis of the solenoid is 0.0276 T.
