Detailed Solution

The magnetic induction due to straight part is

 Bstraight=2μ0I4πR-k^, and due to curved part is 

Bcurved=μ012I2R-i^

Thus total magnetic induction

B=Bstraight+Bcurved

=2μ0I4πR-k^+μ0I4R-i^

=-μ0I4πRπi^+2k^

 B=Bstraight+Bcurved

=μ0I4πR-k^+μ0I4πR-i^+μ012I2R-i^

=μ0I4πRπ+1i^+k^

 In this case current in the curved conductor is divided into two parts. The length of upper curved part is thrice that of hidden lower part and so currents in them are I4 and 3I4respectively. Thus

B=Bstraight+Bcurved

=μ0I4πR-k^+μ0I4πR-j^+μ034I42R-i^+μ0143I42Ri

=-μ0I4πRj^+k^
