Two long mutually perpendicular conductors carrying currents `I_1` and `I_2` lie in one plane, Find the locus of points at which the magnetic induction is zero.

A

circle with centre as the point of intersection of the conductor

B

parabola with vertex as the point of intersection of the conductors

C

straight line passing through the point of intersection of the conductors

D

rectangular hyperbola

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Field due to wire 1 is in to the plane and field due to wire 2 is out of plane. If location of point (P) is symmetrical to both wire field will be zero. Locus will be straight line.
