1 Gauss is equivalent to:

Correct answer: D. 10-4tesla

  • A. 1 tesla
  • B. 10-3tesla
  • C. 10 tesla
  • D. 10-4tesla

Explanation

We know that:1 Tesla = 104Gauss=> 1 gauss = 10-4 TeslaBoth Tesla and Gauss are units of magnetic induction.Electromagnetic or magnetic induction is the production of an electromotive force (i.e.voltage) across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field.

About Magnetic Flux Density

Magnetic flux density measures the magnetic force acting on a current carrying conductor or moving charge in a magnetic field. Work includes the relations B equals F divided by IL and F equals qvB, the tesla as its SI unit, field direction and the distinction between flux density and magnetic flux.
