A conducting circular loop of radius a i...

A conducting circular loop of radius a is connected to two long, straight wires . The straight wires carry a current I as shown in figure . Find the magnetic field B at the centre of the loop.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Magnetic field at P due to each straight wire is zero. B due ot ABC and ADC at P is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. Hence net `B atP = O`.
