Physics-Ampere's Law

NEET Physics Ampere's Law MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

Which of the following statements about Ampere's Law is correct?

A

The integral form of Ampere's Law states that the line integral of the magnetic field B around a closed loop is equal to μ₀ times the total current I passing through the surface bounded by the loop.

B

Ampere's Law can only be applied to infinite straight wires and not to any other configurations.

C

The right-hand rule is not applicable when determining the direction of the magnetic field in relation to the current in Ampere's Law.

D

The expression B . dl equals μ₀ multiplied by the current enclosed by any Amperian loop, regardless of the loop's shape.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Ampere's Law states that the line integral of the magnetic field B around a closed loop is equal to μ₀ times the total current I passing through the surface bounded by the loop, as mentioned in the NCERT context. Options B, C, and D misinterpret the conditions and applications of Ampere's Law.
