To find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field produced at the center of a coil formed by bending a wire of length \( L \) with \( N \) turns and carrying a steady current \( I \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Radius of the Coil The length of the wire \( L \) is equal to the circumference of the coil multiplied by the number of turns \( N \). The circumference of a circle is given by \( 2\pi r \), where \( r \) is the radius. Therefore, we can express this relationship as: \[ L = N \cdot 2\pi r \] From this, we can solve for the radius \( r \): ...
