Magnetic Field in an Infinitely Long Solenoid

A solenoid is a coil wound into a tightly packed helix.

The magnetic induction equals the product of the magnetic constant, electric current and the linear density of the coil turns.

Formula

QuantityVariable["B", "MagneticInduction"] == Quantity[1, "MagneticConstant"]*QuantityVariable["I", "ElectricCurrent"]*QuantityVariable["n", "CoilCoreFactor"]

symbol description physical quantity
B magnetic induction "MagneticInduction"
I electric current "ElectricCurrent"
n coil turn linear density "CoilCoreFactor"
