Electric Field using Ampere's law

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the magnetic field at point P, located 15.0 cm from the center of a circular area with an electric field of 300 V/m, which is increasing at a rate of 22.0 V/m·s. The magnetic field's direction is confirmed to be upward. To determine the magnitude of the magnetic field, Ampere's law must be applied, indicating a direct relationship between the changing electric field and the induced magnetic field.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Ampere's Law

Consider the situation shown in Figure P24.1. An electric field of 300 V/m is confined to a circular area d = 11.0 cm in diameter and directed outward perpendicular to the plane of the figure. If the field is increasing at a rate of 22.0 V/m·s, what are direction and magnitude of the magnetic field at the point P, 15.0 cm from the center of the circle?


I know that the direction is upward but how do I find the magnitude?

Thanks.

You need to use Ampere's law, but judging by the simplicity of the problem, i am not sure if you have learned that topic yet.
