    A rod with a circular cross-section area 2 cm22\ \mathrm{cm^2} and length 4040 cm is wound uniformly with 400400 turns of an insulated wire. If a current 0.40.4 A flows in the wire winding, the total magnetic flux produced inside the winding is 4π×10−64\pi \times 10^{-6} Wb. The relative permeability of the rod is (Given permeability of vacuum μ0=4π×10−7 N m A−2\mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ \mathrm{N\,m\,A^{-2}})
