III. Data Analysis
1. Relationship between the magnetic field and the position of the probe ins
Comment:
-The graph demonstrates that the magnetic field inside a solenoid depends on the position
of the probe inside.
-The magnitude of the magnetic field increases from x = 0 cm to x = 7 cm, and then it
stabe until x = 23 cm.
-Especially, the uniform magnetic field appears from x = 7 cm to x = 23cm
-After x = 23 cm until x = 30 cm, the magnitude decreases from 1.18 mT to 0.54 mT.
-According to the graph, we can see that the graph is symmetric around the x = 15 cm.
2. Relationship between the magnetic field and the applied voltage
Comment:
-The graph illustrates that the magnitude of the magnetic field and the current has a
linear relationship.
