In the figure,what is the magnetic field at the point $O$?

  • A
    $\frac{{{\mu _0}I}}{{4\pi r}}$
  • B
    $\frac{{{\mu _0}I}}{{4\pi r}} + \frac{{{\mu _0}I}}{{2\pi r}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{{\mu _0}I}}{{4r}} + \frac{{{\mu _0}I}}{{4\pi r}}$
  • D
    $\frac{{{\mu _0}I}}{{4r}} - \frac{{{\mu _0}I}}{{4\pi r}}$
