Find the magnetic field at the centre of the circular loop as shown in the figure, when a single wire is bent to form a circular loop and also extends to form straight sections.

a
μ0I2R ⊙
b
μ0I2R  1+1π2⊙
c
μ0I2R  1−1π2⊗
d
μ0IR  1−1π2⊗

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Magnetic field due to AB,B→1  =  μ0I4πR  sin π2−sin π4⊗=  μ0I4πR  1−12 ⊗Magnetic field due to circular loop,B→2=  μ0I4R ⊙Magnetic field due to straight wire BC,B3=  μ0I4πR sin π2+sin π4⊙=  μ0I4πR1+12 ⊙  B→  =B→1 + B→2  +  B→3= μ0I2R + 2μ0I4πR − 12 ⊙ = μ0I2R 1+12 π ⊙

An infinitely long conductor PQR is bent to form a right angle as shown. A current f flows through PQR. The magnetic field due to this current at the point M is H1.  Now another infinitely long straight conductor QS is connected at Q so that the current is I/2 in QR as well as in QS. The current in PQ remains unchanged. The magnetic field at M is now H2. The ratio H1/H2 is given by
