The fractional change in the magnetic field intensity at a distance $r$ from the centre on the axis of a current-carrying coil of radius $a$ to the magnetic field intensity at the centre of the same coil is: (Take $r << a$)

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

$A$ current $I$ is flowing in a conductor $PQRST$ as shown in the figure. The radius of the curved path $QRS$ is $r$ and the length of the straight portions $PQ$ and $ST$ is very large. The magnetic field at the centre $O$ of the curved part is $(\mu_0 = \text{permeability of free space})$

$A$ coil having $9$ turns carrying a current produces a magnetic field $B_1$ at the centre. Now,the coil is rewound into $3$ turns carrying the same current. Then,the magnetic field at the centre $B_2$ is:

Two wires $A$ and $B$ are of lengths $40 \ cm$ and $30 \ cm$. $A$ is bent into a circle of radius $r$ and $B$ into an arc of radius $r$. $A$ current $i_1$ is passed through $A$ and $i_2$ through $B$. To have the same magnetic inductions at the centre, the ratio of $i_1: i_2$ is
