Use Biot-Savart law to derive the expression for the magnetic field on the axis of a current carrying circular loop of radius R.

Draw the magnetic field lines due to a circular wire carrying current I.


Here,

I = current in the loop
R= radius of the loop
X= distance between O and P
dl = conducting element of the loop

According to the Biot-Savart law,

Magnetic field at point P is,



dB has two components: dBx and .
 is cancelled out and the x-component remains.
Therefore,



Summation of dl over the loop is given by,

B = 

Magnetic field lines due to a circular current carrying i is,

Ram is a student of class X in a village school. His uncle gifted him a bicycle with a dynamo fitted in it. He was very excited to get it. While cycling during night, he could light the bulb and see the objects on the road. He, however, did not know how this device works. He asked this question to his teacher. The teacher considered it an opportunity to explain the working to the whole class.

Answer the following questions:

(a) State the principle and working of a dynamo.
(b) Write two values each displayed by Ram and his school teacher.
