Two long parallel wires P and Q are both perpendicular to the plane of the paper with distance 5 m between them. If P and Q carry current of 2.5 A and 5 A, respectively, in the same direction, then the magnetic field at a point half way between the wires is

a
3μ02π
b
μ0π
c
3μ02π
d
μ02π

detailed solution

Correct option is D

In the following figure, magnetic field at mid point M is given byBnet = BQ−BP=μ04π . 2r  iQ −iP= μ04π ×  22.5  5−2.5 =  μ02π
