Consider a current-carrying wire as 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

  • A
    $\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{i}{R}(2+\pi)$
  • B
    $\frac{\mu_0}{2 \pi R}$
  • C
    $\frac{\mu_0}{2} \frac{i}{R}$
  • D
    $\frac{\mu_0}{4} \frac{i}{R}$
