Given situation is shown in the figure. 

Question Image

Parallel wires 1 and 3 are semi-infinite, so magnetic field at O due to them

B1=B3=-μ0I4πRk^

Magnetic field at O due to semi-circular arc in Y Z -plane is given by

B2=-μ0I4Ri^

 Net magnetic field at point O is given by 

B=B1+B2+B3

=-μ0I4πRk^-μ0I4Ri^-μ0I4πRk^=-μ0I4πR(πi^+2k^)
