JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 4. Moving charges and magnetism

A current of \(30\) A each flows in opposite directions in two conducting wires, placed parallel to each other at a distance of \(8\) cm. The magnetic field at the mid point between the two wires is __________ \(\mu\)T. \(\left(\dfrac{\mu_0}{4\pi} = 10^{-7}\text{ N/A}^2\right)\)

  1. A \(30\)
  2. B \(300\)
  3. C \(150\)
  4. D \(0.0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(300\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the distance between the wires be \(d = 8\text{ cm}\). The distance of the midpoint from each wire is \(r = \dfrac{d}{2} = 4\text{ cm} = 0.04\text{ m}\). The current in each wire is \(I = 30\text{ A}\). Since the currents flow in opposite directions, the magnetic fields…
