The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding two identical coaxial loops carrying current in opposite directions, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Setup We have two identical coaxial loops. Let’s denote them as Loop 1 and Loop 2. Loop 1 carries a current \( I \) in an anticlockwise direction, while Loop 2 carries the same current \( I \) in a clockwise direction. ### Step 2: Define the Amperian Loop We consider an Amperian loop \( C \) that passes through both loops. This loop is an imaginary closed path used to apply Ampere's circuital law. ### Step 3: Apply Ampere's Circuital Law According to Ampere's circuital law: \[ \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{l} = \mu_0 I_{\text{enc}} \] where \( I_{\text{enc}} \) is the net current enclosed by the Amperian loop. ### Step 4: Determine the Enclosed Current Since Loop 1 carries current \( I \) in one direction and Loop 2 carries current \( I \) in the opposite direction, the net current enclosed by the Amperian loop \( C \) is: \[ I_{\text{enc}} = I - I = 0 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Line Integral Substituting \( I_{\text{enc}} = 0 \) into Ampere's law gives: \[ \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{l} = \mu_0 \cdot 0 = 0 \] This implies that: \[ \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{l} = 0 \] ### Step 6: Analyze the Options Now, we need to analyze the given options based on our findings: - **Option A** states that \( \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{l} = \pm 2\mu_0 \), which is incorrect since we found it to be 0. - **Option B** states that the value of \( \oint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{l} \) is independent of the sense of current, which is correct because regardless of the direction of the currents, the net current is still zero. - **Option C** suggests there exists a point on \( C \) where \( \mathbf{B} \) and \( d\mathbf{l} \) are parallel, which is incorrect as the magnetic fields from both loops cancel each other out. - **Option D** states that none of the above options are correct, which is also incorrect since Option B is correct. ### Conclusion The correct answer is **Option B**. ---
