Magnetic field due to current element
Question

The resistances of three parts of a circular loop are as shown in figure. The magnetic field at the center ‘O’ is (current enters at A and leaves at B and C as shown)

Difficult
Solution

No current will flow through section BC as the potential points B and C are same. Therefore magnetic field at center ‘O’ will be equal and opposite due to section AB 
and AC. Hence, they cancel out.
