A square shaped wire loop of side L is carrying a current I. What is the magnetic field at the point of intersection of diagonals of the square wire loop ?

  1. A \( \frac{\mu_0 I}{\pi L \sqrt{2}} \)
  2. B \( \frac{2\sqrt{2} \mu_0 I}{\pi L} \)
  3. C \(\frac{2 \mu_o I}{\pi L}\)
  4. D \( \frac{\sqrt{2} \mu_0 I}{\pi L} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( \frac{2\sqrt{2} \mu_0 I}{\pi L} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( r = L/2 \) \( B_{side} = \frac{\mu_0 I}{4 \pi r} (\sin 45^\circ + \sin 45^\circ) = \frac{\mu_0 I}{4 \pi (L/2)} (\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}) = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi L} (\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}) = \frac{\sqrt{2} \mu_0 I}{2 \pi L} \)…
