alrightCharles Link said:The integral around the loop does not obey ## \frac{d \mathcal{E}}{ds}=E ##. (What you did works for ## F(x)=\int\limits_{a}^{x} f(t) \, dt ##. Then ## \frac{dF(x)}{dx}=f(x) ##. This loop integral does not have this form). Instead, the integral is evaluated as ## \mathcal{E}=(E)(2 \pi r)=\pi r^2 |\frac{dB}{dt}| ##
A solenoid is a coil of wire that is tightly wound in a helical shape. It is typically used to create a strong magnetic field when an electric current is passed through it.
When an electric current is passed through a solenoid, it creates a magnetic field along the axis of the coil. This magnetic field then interacts with any charges present in the vicinity, causing them to experience a force and thus creating an electric field.
The direction of the electric field induced by a magnetic field inside a solenoid depends on the direction of the current passing through the coil. If the current is flowing in a clockwise direction, the electric field will be directed towards the center of the coil, and if the current is flowing in a counterclockwise direction, the electric field will be directed away from the center of the coil.
The strength of the magnetic field inside a solenoid is directly proportional to the strength of the electric field induced. This means that as the magnetic field becomes stronger, the electric field also becomes stronger.
The electric field induced by a magnetic field inside a solenoid has many practical applications. It is commonly used in devices such as motors, generators, and transformers, where the conversion of electrical energy to mechanical energy is necessary. It is also used in scientific research and experiments to study the interactions between magnetic and electric fields.
