In the figure, two infinitely long wires carry equal currents i. Each follows a 90° arc on the circumference of the same circle of radius R. Show that the magnetic field B at the Centre of the circle is the same as the field B at distance R below an infinite straight wire carrying a current i to the left.

A thin wire of length l is carrying a constant current. The wire is bent to form a circular coil. The radius of the coil, thus formed, is equal to R, and the number of turns in it is equal to n. Then, which of the following graphs represents the variation of magnetic field induction (B) at the Center of the coil?

Two concentric coplanar circular loops of radii r1 and r2 carry currents of i1 and i2, respectively, in opposite directions (one clockwise and the other anticlockwise.) The magnetic induction at the Centre of the loops is half of that due to i1 alone at the Centre. If r2=2r1, find the value of i2i1.
