detailed solution

Correct option is A

i=10A(K^)B=2×103 T South to North(J^)
To cancel the magnetic field the point should be chosen so that the net magnetic field is along - J^  direction
The point is along -i^  direction or along west of the wire B=μ0i2πr
2×103=4π×107×102π×rr=2×107×102×103=103m=1mm
