An element $\Delta l = \Delta x \hat{i}$ is placed at the origin and carries a current $I = 10 \,A$. The magnetic field on the $y$-axis at a distance of $0.5 \,m$ from the element of length $\Delta x = 1 \,cm$ is:

  • A
    $4 \times 10^{-8} \,T$
  • B
    $8 \times 10^{-8} \,T$
  • C
    $12 \times 10^{-8} \,T$
  • D
    $10 \times 10^{-8} \,T$
