The magnetic field normal to the plane of a wire coil of $n$ turns and radius $r$ carrying a current $i$ is measured on the axis of the coil at a small distance $h$ from the centre. By what fraction is this field smaller than the field at the centre?

  • A
    $\frac{3}{2}\frac{h^2}{r^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}\frac{h^2}{r^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2}\frac{r^2}{h^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{3}\frac{r^2}{h^2}$

$A$ long wire is bent into a circular coil of one turn and then into a circular coil of smaller radius having $n$ turns. If the same current passes in both the cases,the ratio of magnetic fields produced at the centre for one turn to that of $n$ turns is

$A$ circular loop of radius $r$ of conducting wire connected with a voltage source of zero internal resistance produces a magnetic field $B$ at its centre. If instead, a circular loop of radius $2r$, made of the same material and having the same cross-section, is connected to the same voltage source, what will be the magnetic field at its centre?

Two long parallel wires carrying currents $8 \,A$ and $15 \,A$ in opposite directions are placed at a distance of $7 \,cm$ from each other. $A$ point $P$ is equidistant from both the wires such that the lines joining the point to the wires are perpendicular to each other. The magnitude of the magnetic field at point $P$ is $(\sqrt{2}=1.4)$ $(\mu_0=4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \,T \cdot m/A)$.
