The magnetic field at O due to current in the infinite wire forming a loop as a shown in Fig.

A

`(mu_0I)/(2pid) (cos phi_1+cos phi_2)`

B

`(mu_0)/(4pi) (2I)/d (tan theta_1+tan theta_2)`

C

`(mu_0)/(4pi) I/d (sin phi_1+sin phi_2)`

D

`(mu_0)/(4pi) I/d (cos theta_1+cos theta_2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(a) Using `B=(mu_0i)/(4pia)[sin theta_1+sin theta_2]`
But ` theta_1+phi_1=90^@ or theta_1=90^@-phi,`
`sin theta_1= sin(90^@-phi_1)=cos phi_1`
Similarly, `sin theta_2=cos phi_2`
`B_(n et)=(mu_0I)/(2pia)(cos phi_1+cos phi_2)`

    Find the magnetic field at the origin due to the combination of two semi infinite wires and a semicircular wire as shown.

    A current circular conducting loop exerts a magnetic field both inside and outside it. The magnetic field at the cetre of a current loop of radius 'R' and carrying a current I is given as : B = (mu_0 I)/(2 R) The magnetic field lines due to a circular current loop form closed loops. The direction of the magnetic field is given by the right hand thumb rule, which states that if one curls the palm of his right hand around the current loop with the fingers pointing in the direction of the current, the right hand thumb will give the direction of the magnetic field. From this law it is clear that the direction of magnetic field vecB is always perpendicular to the direction of flow of current or perpendicular to the plane of circular current loop. How is the magnetic field at O modified when the two loops are rearranged as shown in Fig.
