Is magnetic field outside the solenoid zero? An intuitive argument can also be used to show that the field outside the solenoid is actually zero. Magnetic field lines only exist as loops, they cannot diverge from or converge to a point like electric field lines can (see Gauss’s law for magnetism).
What is the electric field outside a solenoid? JUST outside the solenoid, the flux is (μ0nat)(πR2).
Why the magnetic field outside the solenoid is uniform? Magnetic field outside a long solenoid can never be zero. Because a solenoid of finite length will have edges and field will come out. However, if we imagine a straigth solenoid of infonite length or a toroid, it will not have edges from where lines of force can come out.
What is the magnetic field inside the solenoid? The magnetic field inside a solenoid is proportional to both the applied current and the number of turns per unit length. There is no dependence on the diameter of the solenoid, and the field strength doesn’t depend on the position inside the solenoid, i.e., the field inside is constant.
