Chapter 29, Problem 14P
Equation 29-4 gives the magnitude B of the magnetic field set up by a current in an infinitely long straight wire, at a point P at perpendicular distance R from the wire. Suppose that point P is actually at perpendicular distance R from the midpoint of a wire with a finite length L. Using Eq. 29-4 to calculate B then results in a certain percentage error. What value must the ratio L/R exceed if the percentage error is to be less than 1.00%? That is, what L/R gives

An electric current is flowing through a long cylindrical conductor with radius a = 0.75 m. The current density J = 9.5 A/m2 is uniform in the cylinder. In this problem we consider an imaginary cylinder with radius r around the axis AB.
1. For r = 0.5 a, calculate the numerical value of B in Tesla.
2. Express the magnitude of the magnetic field, B, at r > a in terms of I and r.
3. Express B in terms of J, a and r.
4. For r = 2 a, calculate the numerical value of B in Tesla.
