MCQ
The magnetic field produced by a current - carrying wire at a given point depends on:
- AThe current passing through it
- BThe voltage across it
- CThe power through it
- DAll

Answer
- The current passing through it
Explanation:
The magnetic field produced by a current - carrying wire at a given point depends directly on the current passing through it.
Therefore, if there is a circular coil having n turns, the field produced is n times as large as that produced by a single turn.
This is because the current in each circular turn has the same direction, and the field due to each turn then just adds up.
