The magnetic induction at a point $P$ which is distant $4 \, cm$ from a long current-carrying wire is $10^{-8} \, T$. The magnetic field induction at a distance $12 \, cm$ from the same current would be:

  • A
    $3.33 \times 10^{-9} \, T$
  • B
    $1.11 \times 10^{-4} \, T$
  • C
    $3 \times 10^{-3} \, T$
  • D
    $9 \times 10^{-2} \, T$

Five long wires $A, B, C, D$ and $E$,each carrying current $I$ are arranged to form edges of a pentagonal prism as shown in the figure. Each carries current out of the plane of the paper.
$(a)$ What will be the magnetic induction at a point on the axis $O$? The axis is at a distance $R$ from each wire.
$(b)$ What will be the field if the current in one of the wires (say $A$) is switched off?
$(c)$ What if the current in one of the wires (say $A$) is reversed?

Two similar coils each of radius $R$ are lying concentrically with their planes at right angles to each other. The currents flowing in them are $I$ and $2I$. The resultant magnetic field of induction at the centre will be ($\mu_0 =$ Permeability of vacuum).
