Magnetic Circuits Homework

The solenoid shown in the figure below consists of a 500 turn coil on a uniformly sized
core. The core has a cross-sectional area of 4x10-4 m2. The length of the air gap is
0.5x10-2 m long. Assume that the reluctance of the core is negligible, that the
permeability of air is 4πx10-7 Wb/A-t-m, and that the current, I, is 10 A, find:

a.) the magnetomotive force present


b.) the reluctance of the entire magnetic circuit
c.) the total magnetic flux that circulates
d.) the magnetic flux density in the air gap
e.) the magnetic field intensity in the air gap
