A wire carrying current I has the shape ...

A wire carrying current I has the shape as shown in adjoining figure. Linear parts of the wire are very long and parallel to X- axis while semicircular portion of radius R is lying in Y - Z plane. Magnetic field at point O is:

A

`vecB = (mu_0)/ (4pi) I/R (pihati - 2hatk)`

B

`vecB = (- mu_0)/ (4pi) I/R (pihati + 2hatk)`

C

`vecB = (- mu_0)/ (4pi) I/R (pihati - 2hatk)`

D

`vecB = (mu_0)/ (4pi) I/R (pihati + 2hatk)`
