The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use Ampere's Circuital Law, which relates the magnetic field around a closed loop to the current passing through the loop. The law states that the line integral of the magnetic field \( B \) around a closed path is equal to \( \mu_0 \) times the current \( I \) enclosed by that path. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values:** - Current \( I = \frac{1}{4\pi} \) A - Permeability of free space \( \mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A} \) 2. **Apply Ampere's Circuital Law:** - According to Ampere's Circuital Law: \[ \oint B \cdot dl = \mu_0 I_{\text{enc}} \] - Here, \( I_{\text{enc}} \) is the current enclosed by the closed path. 3. **Substitute the Values:** - Substitute \( \mu_0 \) and \( I \) into the equation: \[ \oint B \cdot dl = (4\pi \times 10^{-7}) \left(\frac{1}{4\pi}\right) \] 4. **Simplify the Expression:** - The \( 4\pi \) terms cancel out: \[ \oint B \cdot dl = 10^{-7} \, \text{T m} \] 5. **Final Result:** - The line integral of magnetic induction around the closed path is: \[ \oint B \cdot dl = 10^{-7} \, \text{T m} \]
