State Biot-Savart's law and express this law in the vector form.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Biot-Savart's law states that the magnetic field induction at a point due to current I in element of legth `dl`, at distance r from the element is

`dB=(mu_0)/(4pi)(Idlsintheta)/(r^2)`
`dvecB=(mu_0)/(4pi)(I(dveclxxvecr))/(r^3)`
