Good morning, physics enthusiasts! Today on Flipping Physics, we're delving into the fascinating realm of ideal solenoids, those remarkable tools for generating a uniform magnetic field. Join us as we explore the anatomy of a solenoid, unraveling its structure of a single, insulated wire coiled to form a hollow cylinder. In the world of ideal solenoids, length dwarfs diameter, creating a magnetic wonder. As we embark on the journey to understand the magnetic field within this device, witness the application of the alternate righthand rule and the emergence of an Amperian loop. Dive deep into the derivation using Ampère’s law, demystifying the equation for the magnetic field inside an ideal solenoid. Want Lecture Notes? http://www.flippingphysics.com/soleno...
