Question

Which of the following statements is false?

 

 
A. Magnetic flux density is a vector, and the direction of current will be an important determinant of the direction of magnetic flux density.
B. When we apply a magnetic field to the material and we want to understand how much magnetized it is, we basically investigate permeability.
C. When the current on a wire reaches 3A, the free space permeability and relative permeability will not have an impact on the magnetic flux density as they cancel out each other.
D. Biot-Savart Law is necessary when we need to understand the impacts of the characteristics of electric current (e.g., direction, magnitude, etc.) on magnetic field.
E. If we alter the length of a current-carrying straight wire, the magnetic field is also altered.
