Two concentric coplanar circular loops of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ carry currents $i_1$ and $i_2$ in opposite directions (one clockwise and the other anticlockwise). The magnetic induction at the center of the loops is half that due to $i_1$ alone at the center. If $r_2 = 2r_1$,find the value of $\frac{i_2}{i_1}$.

The Earth's magnetic induction at a certain point is $7 \times 10^{-5} \ Wb/m^2$. This is to be annulled by the magnetic induction at the center of a circular conducting loop of radius $5 \ cm$. The required current in the loop is......$A$

$A$ long solenoid with $1000 \, \text{turns/m}$ has a core material with relative permeability $500$ and volume $10^{3} \, \text{cm}^{3}$. If the core material is replaced by another material having relative permeability of $750$ with the same volume, maintaining the same current of $0.75 \, \text{A}$ in the solenoid, the fractional change in the magnetic moment of the core would be approximately $\left(\frac{x}{499}\right)$. Find the value of $x$.
