An electron of mass $m$ is revolving around the nucleus in a circular orbit of radius $r$ and has angular momentum $L$. The magnetic field produced by the electron at the centre of the orbit is ($e = \text{electric charge}$, $\mu_{0} = \text{permeability of free space}$)

  • A
    $\frac{\mu_{0} eL}{4 \pi m r^{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{\mu_{0} eL}{4 \pi m r^{3}}$
  • C
    $\frac{\mu_{0} eL}{2 \pi m r^{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{\mu_{0} eL}{2 \pi m r^{3}}$

The Biot-Savart law for a moving point charge $q$ with velocity $\vec{v}$ is given by $\vec{B} = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} \frac{q(\vec{v} \times \vec{r})}{r^3}$. This indicates that the magnetic field $\vec{B}$ produced by an electron moving with velocity $\vec{v}$ is such that:

As shown in the figure,a long straight conductor with a semicircular arc of radius $R = \frac{\pi}{10} \, m$ is carrying a current $I = 3 \, A$. The magnitude of the magnetic field at the center $O$ of the arc is $........... \mu T$. (The permeability of the vacuum $\mu_0 = 4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \, T \cdot m/A$)
