The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio \( \frac{B_1}{B_2} \), where \( B_1 \) is the magnetic field intensity at the center of a square frame of side \( L \) carrying current \( I \), and \( B_2 \) is the magnetic field intensity at the center of a circular loop with the same current \( I \) and the same circumference as the square frame. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Calculate the Perimeter of the Square Frame:** The perimeter \( P \) of a square frame with side length \( L \) is given by: \[ P = 4L \] 2. **Determine the Radius of the Circular Loop:** The circumference \( C \) of the circular loop is equal to the perimeter of the square frame: \[ C = 2\pi R = 4L \] Solving for \( R \): \[ R = \frac{4L}{2\pi} = \frac{2L}{\pi} \] 3. **Calculate the Magnetic Field \( B_1 \) at the Center of the Square Frame:** The magnetic field at the center of a square loop carrying current \( I \) is given by: \[ B_1 = \frac{\mu_0 I}{4\pi} \cdot \frac{4}{L} \cdot \sqrt{2} \] Simplifying this: \[ B_1 = \frac{\mu_0 I \sqrt{2}}{\pi L} \] 4. **Calculate the Magnetic Field \( B_2 \) at the Center of the Circular Loop:** The magnetic field at the center of a circular loop carrying current \( I \) is given by: \[ B_2 = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2R} \] Substituting \( R = \frac{2L}{\pi} \): \[ B_2 = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \cdot \frac{2L}{\pi}} = \frac{\mu_0 I \pi}{4L} \] 5. **Find the Ratio \( \frac{B_1}{B_2} \):** Now, we can find the ratio: \[ \frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{\frac{\mu_0 I \sqrt{2}}{\pi L}}{\frac{\mu_0 I \pi}{4L}} \] Simplifying this: \[ \frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\frac{\pi}{4}} = \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{\pi} \] 6. **Final Result:** Thus, the ratio \( \frac{B_1}{B_2} \) is: \[ \frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{8\sqrt{2}}{\pi^2} \]

To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio \( \frac{B_1}{B_2} \), where \( B_1 \) is the magnetic field intensity at the center of a square frame of side \( L \) carrying current \( I \), and \( B_2 \) is the magnetic field intensity at the center of a circular loop with the same current \( I \) and the same circumference as the square frame. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Calculate the Perimeter of the Square Frame:** The perimeter \( P \) of a square frame with side length \( L \) is given by: \[ P = 4L ...
