Biot-Savart law indicates that the moving electrons (velocity `vecv` ) produce a magnetic field `vecB` such that

A

`vec(B) _|_vec(v)`

B

`vec(B) || vec(v)`

C

it obeys inverse cube law.

D

it is along the line joining the electron and point of observation.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Magnetic field produced by charges moving with velocity `vec v`, at a distance r is `vecB = (mu_(0))/(4pi). Q(vecv xx hatr)/r^(2)`
Therefore `vecB bot vecv`.
