The magnetic field at the centre \(\mathrm{C}\) of the arrangement shown in figure is

  1. A \(\frac{\mu_0 i}{2 \pi r}(1+\pi)\)
  2. B \(\frac{\mu_0 i}{4 \pi r}(1+\pi)\)
  3. C \(\frac{\mu_0 i}{\pi r}(1+\pi)\)
  4. D \(\frac{\mu_0 i}{r}(1+\pi)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{\mu_0 i}{4 \pi r}(1+\pi)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to diagram in the question, magnetic field at the centre \(C\) will be sum of the magnetic field due to straight part \(B_1\) and magnetic field due to circular part \(B_2\). \(\because\) From Maxwell's right hand thumb rule direction of both magnetic field at the…
