Important Questions on Magnetic Field on the Axis of a Circular Current Loop

HARD
IMPORTANT

Two parallel wires separated by 2 m carry currents of 3A each in the opposite directions. Find the magnetic induction for the points between the wires at a distance 50 cm from each wire.

MEDIUM
IMPORTANT

For a circular coil of radius R and N turns carrying current I; the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point on its axis at a distance x from its centre is given by,
B=μ0IR2N2(X2+R2)32
Show that this reduces to the familiar result for the field at the centre of the coil.

HARD
IMPORTANT

Two concentric circular coils X and Y of radii 16 cm and 10 cm, respectively, lie in the same vertical plane containing the north to south direction. Coil X has 20 turns and carries a current of 16 A; coil Y has 25 turns and carries a current of 18 A. The sense of the current in X is anticlockwise, and clockwise in Y, for an observer looking at the coils facing west. Give the magnitude and direction of the net magnetic field due to the coils at their centre.
