Important Questions on Magnetic Effects of Current and Magnetism
Two very long, straight, and insulated wires are kept at angle from each other in plane as shown in the figure.
These wires carry currents of equal magnitude , whose direction are shown in the figure. The net magnetic field at point will be:














Find the magnetic field at point due to a straight line segment of length carrying a current of (See figure)

The magnetic field at the centre in the given figure is

A wire , bent in the shape of an arc of a circle, carrying a current of and having radius and another wire , also bent in the shape of an arc of a circle, carrying a current of and having radius of , are placed as shown in the figure. The ratio of the magnetic fields due to the wires and at the common centre is:



A wire carrying current has the shape as shown in adjoining figure. Linear parts of the wire are very long and parallel to -axis while semicircular portion of radius is lying in - plane. Magnetic field at point is :

As shown in the figure, two infinitely long, identical wires are bent by and placed in such a way that the segments and are along the - axis, while segments and are parallel to the - axis. If and the magnitude of the magnetic field at is and the two wires carry equal currents (see figure), the magnitude of the current in each wire and the direction of the magnetic field at will be
