Eight wires cut the page perpendicularly at the points shown in figure. A wire labelled with the integer Carries the current , where . For those wires with odd the current is out of the page; for those with even it is into the page. Evaluate Along the closed path indicated and in the direction shown.



Important Questions on Magnetic Fields Due to Currents
Each of the eight conductors in the given figure carries of current into or out of the page. Two paths are indicated for the line integral What is the value of the integral for path and path

In the given figure a long circular pipe with outside radius carries a (uniformly distributed) current into the page. A wire runs parallel to the pipe at a distance of from centre to centre. Find the magnitude and the direction (into or out of the page) of the current in the wire such that the net magnetic field at point has the same magnitude as the net magnetic field at the center of the pipe but is in the opposite direction.


In the given figure, two semicircular arcs have radii and that carry current and have the same centre of curvature What are the magnitude and direction (into or out of the page) of the net magnetic field at ?



The figure shows two very long straight wires (in cross-section) that each carry a current of directly out of the page. Distance and distance What is the magnitude of the net magnetic field at point , which lies on a perpendicular bisector to the wires?

Figure (a) shows an element of length in a very long straight wire carrying current. The current in that element sets up a differential magnetic field at points in the surrounding space. Figure (b) gives the magnitude of the field for points from the element, as a function of angle between the wire and a straight line to the point. The vertical scale is set by . What is the magnitude of the magnetic field set up by the entire wire at perpendicular distance from the wire?
