PHY 101 Physical Quantities And Units Objective Question

Question

The SI units of magnetic field is:
Options
A Weber per metre²
B Newton per coulomb per (metre per second)
C Ampere per metre
D All the above
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Magnetic field (B) can be expressed in tesla (T), where 1 T = 1 Wb/m². It can also be expressed as N/(C·m/s) since F = q(v x B). Magnetic field intensity (H) is in A/m. Since the question asks for SI units of magnetic field (B), all are equivalent forms.

Hint

The tesla has several equivalent expressions.
