An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya

Principle of superposition applies to both.

The electrostatic field is along the displacement vector joining the source and the field point. The magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane containing the displacement vector r and the current element I dl.

Both are angle dependent.

Both Biot-Savart law and Coulomb’s law are long range.

Detailed Solution

Both Biot-Savart Law and Coulomb’s Law describe interactions between charges, but they apply to different scenarios. Biot-Savart Law deals with the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying conductor, while Coulomb’s Law describes the electric force between stationary charges and both are angle dependent.
