(b) What is it at a radial distance of 5.00 cm?

5. Assume the average value of the vertical component of Earth's magnetic field is 53 µT (downward) over an area of 3.25 10^5 km^2. What then are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (inward or outward) of the net magnetic flux through the rest of Earth's surface (the entire surface excluding this area)?

4.

Uniform displacement current. The figure below shows a circular region of radius R = 3.00 cm in which a uniform displacement current id = 0.500 A is directed out of the page.

(a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field due to the displacement current at a radial distance of 2.00 cm?
µT

(b) What is it at a radial distance of 5.00 cm?
µT

Solution: Density of the displacement current with in the circular region = Jd = Id/ПR2 = 0.5/Пx0.032 = 176.93 A/m2

As per Ampere Maxwell law: ∫B . dl = μo(I + Id) where Id is the displacement current
a) We consider an Amperian loop of radius 2 cm and apply the Ampere Maxwell law to the same.
As there is no conduction current, I = 0
Displacement current enclosed by the Amperian loop = Jd x П x r2 = 176.93 x П x 0.022 = 0.22 A
∫B . dl = B (2П x 0.02) = 4П x 10-7 x 0.22
B = (4П x 10-7 x 0.22)/(2П x 0.02) = 22 x 10-7 T or 2.2 μT
b) For radial distance of 5 cm, Id = 0.5 A.
∫B . dl = B (2П x 0.05) = 4П x 10-7 x 0.5
B = (4П x 10-7 x 0.5)/(2П x 0.05) = 20 x 10-7 T or 2 μT
