Q.

The figure shows a circular loop made of a wire of radius R. The resistivity of the material varies as a function of θ such that ρ=ρ0sin2θ . The positions of the Jockey such that the magnetic field at the centre (O) due to the current in the loop is zero, will be

Consider two sectors one of α and other of (2π -α)
B at O will be zero if I1α=I2(2πα)
I1=ER1,I2=ER2
 So αR1=2παR2
R1=0αρ0sin2θARdθ 

R1=ρ0RAα-sin2α2

 

Similarly we can get R2

R2=α2πρ0sin2θARdθ=ρ0RA(2π-α)+sin2α2

Now using, 

αR2=(2π-α)R1

αρ0RA(2π-α)+sin2α2=(2π-α)ρ0RAα-sin2α2

sin2α=0

On solving we get α=π2,π,3π2
