The figure shows a straight wire of length $l$ carrying current $i$. The magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the current at point $P$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{{\sqrt 2 {\mu _0}i}}{{\pi l}}$
  • B
    $\frac{{{\mu _0}i}}{{4\pi l}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{\sqrt 2 {\mu _0}i}}{{8\pi l}}$
  • D
    $\frac{{{\mu _0}i}}{{2\sqrt 2 \pi l}}$
