Questions  

What will be the resultant magnetic field at origin due to four infinite length wires if each wire produces magnetic field B at origin?

a
4B
b
2B
c
22B
d
Zero

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Direction of magnetic field (B1, B2, B3 and B4) at origin due to wires 1, 2, 3 and 4 are shown in the following figure. B1=B2=B3=B4=μ04π⋅2ix=B. So, net magnetic field at origin O Bnet =B1+B32+B2+B42=(2B)2+(2B)2=22B
