The magnetic field inside a solenoid can be calculated using the formula:

B = μ0 * n * I

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

In this case, n = 2000 turns/m and I = 5.2 A. Substituting these values into the formula:

B = (4π * 10^-7 T·m/A) * 2000 turns/m * 5.2 A

B = 4π * 10^-7 T·m/A * 2000 turns/m * 5.2 A

B = (4π * 10^-7 T·m/A) * (2000 turns/m) * (5.2 A)

B ≈ 5.23 × 10^-3 T

Therefore, the magnetic field within the solenoid is approximately 5.23 millitesla (mT).
