A very long cylindrical conductor carries a current I. ‘p’ is point lying outside the conductor at a distance x from the surface of the conductor and magnetic induction at P is ‘B’. Then which of the following graphs correctly shows the variation of B with x? 

a
b
c
d

detailed solution

Correct option is C

B=μ0I2π(R+x) where R = Radius of conductor.At x=0, B=μ0I2πR and as x→∞,B→0
