Q.

Figures shows combination of two semi-infinite long wires kept on Z and Y-axis. It carries constant current I as shown in figure. Calculate QPB·dl  on line QP. Coordinates of points P and Q are (a, 0, 0) and (0, a, 0) respectively. If QPB.dl  is μ0IK, then the value of 'K'is

Detailed Solution

Due to wire along Y axis, B·dl=0. It is because at each point of the path, magnetic field and dl vector are perpendicular to each other.


For the wire along Z axis: Consider a point, say M, on the line PQ, such that angle between line OM and the line joining O to the midpoint of PQ is θ . 

Magnetic field at the point M is B=μ0I4πr, where r is the distance of the point M from the point O. The length of a small differential element, MN, along PQ around M can be written as dl=rdθcosθ

So, at M, B·dl=(μ0I4πr)rdθcosθcosθ=μ0Idθ

So, -π4π4B·dl=μ0Iπ2=μ0I8
