Question
If the magnetic field intensity () in a conducting region is given by the expression, A/m. The magnitude of the current density, in A/m, at m, m, and m, is
Correct answer
(B) 12
Solution
From Maxwell's equations, the current density is given by the curl of the magnetic field intensity :Calculating the components:At the point :The magnitude is:
