An infinitely long straight conductor is bent into a shape as shown in the figure. It carries a current amperes and the radius of the circular loop is meter. Then, the magnetic induction at its center will be,




Important Questions on Sources of Magnetic Field
A part of a long wire carrying a current is bent into a circle of radius , as shown in the figure. The net magnetic field at the Centre of the circular loop is

In the figure, what is the magnetic field at the point ?

The figure shows two wires, each carrying a current. The wire consists of a circular arc of radius and two radial lengths; it carries current in the direction indicated. The wire is long and straight; it carries a current that can be varied, and it is at a distance of from the Centre of the arc. The net magnetic field due to the two currents is measured at the Centre of curvature of the arc. Figure is a plot of the component of in the direction perpendicular to the figure as a function of current . What is the angle subtended by the arc?

A current-carrying wire loop, in fig , lies in one plane and consists of a semicircle of radius , a smaller semicircle with the same center, and two radial lengths. The smaller semicircle is rotated out of that plane by an angle until it is perpendicular to the plane [fig (b)]. Figure gives the magnitude of the net magnetic field at the center of curvature versus angle . What is the radius of the smaller semicircle?

A circular coil is in plane with Centre at the origin. The coil is carrying a constant current. Assuming direction of the magnetic field at to be the positive direction of the magnetic field, which of the following graphs shows the variation of the magnetic field along the axis



The magnetic field at the Centre of a circular coil of a radius is times that due to a long straight wire at a distance from it, for equal currents. The following figures show three cases: in all cases, the circular part has a radius and straight ones are infinitely long. For the same current, the field at the Centre in case of diagrams , and has the ratio
