6.A straight wire carrying a current of 12 A is bent into a semi-circular arc of radius 2.0 cm as shown in Fig. (a). Consider the magnetic field B at the centre of the arc. a . What is the magnetic field due to the straight segments? b. In what way the contribution to B from the semicircle differs from that of a circular loop and in what way does it resemble? c. Would your answer be different if the wire were bent into a semi-circular arc of the same radius but in the opposite way as shown in Fig. (b)?

Gravitational waves: Waves are created on the surface of water when we drop a stone into it. Similarly you must have seen the waves generated on a string when both its ends are held in hand and it is shaken. Light is also a type of wave called the electromagnetic wave. Gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet rays, infrared rays, microwave and radio waves are all different types of electromagnetic waves. Astronomical objects emit these waves and we receive them using our instruments. All our knowledge about the universe has been obtained through these waves. Gravitational waves are a very different type of waves. They have been called the waves on the fabric of space-time. Insteine predicted their existence in 1916. These waves are very weak and it is very difficult to detect them. Scientists have constructed extremely sensitive instruments to detect the gravitational waves emitted by astronomical sources. Among these, LIGO (Laser Interferometrc Gravitational Wave Observatory) is the prominent one. Exactly after hundred years of their prediction, scientists detected these waves coming from an astronomical source. Indian scientist have contributed significantly inthis discovery. This discovery has opened a new path to obtain information about the Universe. What is the device, used to detect GRavitational waves?
