$A$ current-carrying wire in its neighbourhood produces:

Two parallel wires of equal lengths are separated by a distance of $3 \,m$ from each other. The currents flowing through the first and second wires are $3 \,A$ and $4.5 \,A$ respectively in opposite directions. The resultant magnetic field at the mid-point of both the wires is ($\mu_{0} =$ permeability of free space).

Define the law for finding the direction of a magnetic field due to a circular current loop.

$A$ current-carrying circular loop of radius '$R$' and a current-carrying long straight wire are placed in the same plane. The currents through the circular loop and the long straight wire are '$I_C$' and '$I_w$' respectively. The perpendicular distance between the centre of the circular loop and the wire is '$d$'. The magnetic field at the centre of the loop will be zero when the separation '$d$' is equal to:
