Detailed Solution
Given situation is shown in the figure. Parallel wires 1 and 3 are semi-infinite, so magnetic field at O due to themB→1=B→3=-μ0I4πRk^Magnetic field at O due to semi-circular arc in Y Z -plane is given byB→2=-μ0I4Ri^ Net magnetic field at point O is given by B→=B→1+B→2+B→3=-μ0I4πRk^-μ0I4Ri^-μ0I4πRk^=-μ0I4πR(πi^+2k^)
