A non-planar loop of conducting wire carrying a current I is placed as shown in the figure. Each of the straight sections of the loop is of length 2a. The magnetic field due to this loop at the point P (a, 0, a) in the direction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The magnetic field at P (a, 0 a) due to the loop is equal to the vector sum of the magnetic fields produced by loops ABCDA and AFEBA as shown in the figure

Magnetic field due to ABCDA will be along `hati` and due to loop AFEBA, along `hatk`
Magnitude of magnetic field due to both the loops will be equal.
Therefore, direction of resultant magnetic field at P will be `1/(sqrt2)(hati+hatk)`
