Question
A long solenoid with radius a and n turns per unit length carries a time-dependent currentI(t) in the φˆ direction. Find the electric field (magnitude and direction) at a distance s from theaxis of the solenoid (both inside and outside of the solenoid).
Solution
To find the electric field at a distance s from the axis of the solenoid, we can use Ampere's law. Ampere's law states that the line integral of the magnetic field around a closed loop is equal to the product of the current enclosed by the loop and the permeability of free space.
Inside the solenoid:
