### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Ampere's Law**: - Ampere's Law states that the line integral of the magnetic field **B** around a closed loop is proportional to the electric current **I** passing through that loop. Mathematically, it is expressed as: \[ \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{l} = \mu_0 I \] - This law implies that a magnetic field is generated by an electric current. ...
