To find x, we need to use the formula for the magnetic field inside a solenoid:

B = μ₀ * n * I,

where B is the magnetic field, μ₀ is the permeability of free space (μ₀ = 4π x 10^(-7) T*m/A), n is the number of turns per meter, and I is the current.

Rearranging the equation to solve for x, we get:

x = B / (μ₀ * n * I).

Substituting the given values:

x = 2.0 T / (4π x 10^(-7) T*m/A * 1000 turns/m * 5.0 A).

Simplifying:

x = 2.0 T / (8π x 10^(-3) T*m/A).

Using the value of π (pi) as 3.14:

x = 2.0 T / (8 x 3.14 x 10^(-3) T*m/A).

x ≈ 79.6 m.
