Do magnetic forces obey Newton's third law? Verify for two current elements $\overrightarrow{dl_1} = dl(\hat{i})$ located at the origin and $\overrightarrow{dl_2} = dl(\hat{j})$ located at $(0, R, 0)$. Both carry current $I$.

$A$ regular polygon of $6$ sides is formed by bending a wire of length $4 \pi \text{ m}$. If an electric current of $4 \pi \sqrt{3} \text{ A}$ is flowing through the sides of the polygon,the magnetic field at the centre of the polygon would be $x \times 10^{-7} \text{ T}$. The value of $x$ is . . . . . . .

The magnetic field at the center of a circular coil carrying current '$I$' for a single turn of a given length of wire is '$B$'. The same wire is bent into a circular coil having two turns. When the same current '$I$' passes through it, the value of the magnetic field becomes:

Do two magnetic field lines intersect each other? Why?

When the current flowing in a circular coil is doubled and the number of turns of the coil in it is halved,the magnetic field at its centre will become
