A circular coil of radius `R` carries a current `i`. The magnetic field at its centre is `B`. The distance from the centre on the axis of the coil where the magnetic field will be `B//8` is

A

`sqrt2R`

B

`sqrt3R`

C

`2R`

D

`3R`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`B = (mu_0"nir"^2)/(2(r^2 + x^2)^(3//2) ) = 1/8 xx (mu_0 "ni")/(2r) `
