Consider a long straight wire of a circular cross-section (radius $a$) carrying a steady current $I$. The current is uniformly distributed across this cross-section. The distances from the centre of the wire's cross-section at which the magnetic field [inside the wire,outside the wire] is half of the maximum possible magnetic field,anywhere due to the wire,will be

Describe the arrangement of iron filings sprinkled around a straight current-carrying wire.

The magnetic field at the centre $O$ due to the given structure is:

$A$ particle is moving with velocity $\overrightarrow{v} = \hat{i} + 3\hat{j}$ and it produces an electric field at a point given by $\overrightarrow{E} = 2\hat{k}$. It will produce a magnetic field at that point equal to (all quantities are in $SI$ units):
