TS EAMCET · Physics · Magnetic Effects of Current

Consider a current carrying wire shown in the figure. If the radius of the curved part of the wire is \(R\) and the linear parts are assumed to be very long, then the magnetic induction of the field at the point \(O\) is

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{i}{R}(2+\pi)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Magnetic field at point \(O=\) Magnetic field due to wire l + Magnetic field due to semi-circle + Magnetic field due to wire 2 \( \therefore B_{\text {at } O}=\frac{\mu_0 i}{4 \pi R}+\frac{\mu_0 i}{4 R}+\frac{\mu_0 i}{4 \pi R}=\frac{\mu_0 i}{4 \pi R}(2+\pi) \)
