Answer:
(a) I = 1650000 A
(b) 4.125 T
Explanation:
Magnetic field, B = 5.5 T
distance, r = 0.06 m
(a) Let the current is I.
The magnetic field due to a long wire is given by
[tex]B =\frac{\mu o}{4\pi }\frac{2 I}{r}\\5.5= 10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times I}{0.06}\\I =1650000 A[/tex]
(b) Let the magnetic field is B' at distance r = 0.08 m.
[tex]B =\frac{\mu o}{4\pi }\frac{2 I}{r}\\B = 10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times 1650000}{0.08}\\B'= 4.125 T[/tex]
