$A$ long straight wire with a circular cross-section having radius $R$ is carrying a steady current $I$. The current $I$ is uniformly distributed across this cross-section. Then the variation of magnetic field due to current $I$ with distance $r$ $(r < R)$ from its centre will be:

  • A
    $B \propto r^{2}$
  • B
    $B \propto r$
  • C
    $B \propto \frac{1}{r^{2}}$
  • D
    $B \propto \frac{1}{r}$
