  • A
    $\vec{B} \perp \vec{v}$
  • B
    $\vec{B} \parallel \vec{v}$
  • C
    It obeys the inverse cube law
  • D
    It is along the line joining the electron and the point of observation

In the given diagram,two current-carrying circular loops of radius $R$ and $2R$ are arranged in the $YZ-$ plane and $XZ-$ plane respectively. The common center of both is at the origin $O$. What will be the angle of the resultant magnetic field from the $X-$ axis?

$A$ current-carrying circular loop of radius '$R$' and a current-carrying long straight wire are placed in the same plane. The currents through the circular loop and the long straight wire are '$I_C$' and '$I_w$' respectively. The perpendicular distance between the centre of the circular loop and the wire is '$d$'. The magnetic field at the centre of the loop will be zero when the separation '$d$' is equal to:

At a distance of $10\, cm$ from a long straight wire carrying current,the magnetic field is $0.04\, T$. At a distance of $40\, cm$,the magnetic field will be....$T$

In the current-carrying conductor $(AOCDEFG)$ as shown,the magnetic induction at the point $O$ is ($R_1$ and $R_2$ are radii of arcs $CD$ and $EF$ respectively,$I$ = current in the loop,$\mu_0$ = permeability of free space).
