In Fig. the circular and the straight parts of the wire are made of same material but have different diameters. The magnetic field at the centre is zero.

The ratio of the diameters of wires of circular and straight parts is

A

`1/(sqrt(2))`

B

`(2sqrt(3))/(pi)`

C

`(3sqrt(3))/(2pi)`

D

`sqrt(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

From `R=(rhol)/A,(R_(1))/(R_(2))=(l_(1))/(l_(2))(A_(2))/(A_(1))implies(V//I_(1))/(V//I_(2))=(l_(1))/(l_(2))((pi//4)d_(2)^(2))/((pi//4)d_(1)^(2))implies(d_(1))/(d_(2))=sqrt((I_(1))/(I_(2)) (I_(1))/(I_(2)))=sqrt((4pi)/(3sqrt(3)). ( 3 sqrt(3))/(2pi))=sqrt(2)`
Where `I_(1)=2piR(2/3)=4/3pi R` and `I_(2)=2R sin 60^(@)` =`sqrt(3)R`
