What is the net magnetic field at point ...

What is the net magnetic field at point O for the current distribution shown here?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let `B_(1)=` magnetic field due to circular loop `= (mu_(0)i)/(2r)` inward and `B_(2) =` magnetic field due to straight current carrying wire `= (mu_(0) (4i))/(2pi(2r)) = (mu_(0)i)/(pi r)` outward
As `B_(1) gt B_(2) rArr` Net field `= B_(1) - B_(2) = (mu_(0)i)/(pi r)` inward
