Can We Find an Electric Field Inside a Solenoid?

[Googl]

Can we find an electric field in a solenoid? Just a little confused

The E field around a current carrying wire is zero.

Thanks,

Is there any reason why?

 

[Googl]

My teach is telling me that E=Q/4pi_r^2 is directly proportional to B/r^2

Does that make sense. The first formula is the formula used to find the electric field.

 

[jtbell]

E=Q/4pi_r^2

What does this have to do with a solenoid? This looks like the formula for E from a point charge except it's missing an $\epsilon_0$.

 

[Googl]

Yes it is the formula E from a point charge.

What would the B/r^2 stand for in a solenoid experiment? I mean what would you use that for to find what?

And what about B/r

Thanks.

In a current carrying wire the sum of the charge in side would be zero. You could make a Gauss surface around the wire.
