The magnetic field at centre O of the arc in Fig.

A

`(mu_0I)/(4pixxr)[sqrt2+pi]`

B

`(muI)/(2pir)[pi/4+(sqrt2-1)]`

C

`(mu_0)/(4pi)xxI/r[(sqrt2-pi)]`

D

`(muI)/(4pi)xxI/r[sqrt2+pi/4]`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
(b) Magnetic field due to straight wires

`B_(circular)=1/4 (mu_0I)/(2r)=(mu_0I)/(8r)`
`B_(straight)=2(mu_0I)/(4pi(rcos45^@))[sin90^@-sin45^@]`
`=(sqrt2mu_0I)/(2pir)[1-1/sqrt2]`
