An infinitely long wire lying along the $Y$-axis carries a current $I$ as shown in the figure. What is the magnetic flux through a circular loop of radius $R$ in the $xy$-plane? [Assume $\mu_0$ is the magnetic permeability of free space.]

  • A
    $\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi R}$
  • B
    $\mu_0 / R$
  • C
    $\frac{\mu_0 I}{\pi R^2}$
  • D
    Zero
