    A wire is wound in the form of a solenoid of length \[l\] and distance\[d\]. When a strong current is passed through a solenoid, there is a tendency to

    A)  increase\[l\]but decrease\[d\]

    B)  keep both\[l\]and d constant

    C)  decrease\[l\]but increase\[d\]

    D)  increase both\[l\]and\[d\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The magnetic field produced due to a current carrying solenoid is\[B={{\mu }_{0}}ni\] It is clear that magnetic field is independent of its length and-cross-sectional area. So, when a strong current is passed through it, then both\[l\]and\[d\]remains constant.
