Question

A straight conductor carrying current i splits intotwo parts as shown in the figure. The radius of thecircular loop is R. The total magnetic field at thecentre P of the loop is, ​

Answer 1

The magnetic field at the centre of the loop is zero

Explanation:

We are given:

Radius of the circular loop =  R

Solution:

• As we know that the conductor splits into two equal parts.
• Therefore the magnetic field divides equally between the two parts.
• As the field is equally divided between the two parts therefore there is no magnetic filed at the centre of the loop.

Hence the magnetic field at the centre of the loop is zero.
