$AB$ and $CD$ are long straight conductors,separated by a distance $d$,each carrying a current $I$. The magnetic field at the midpoint of $BC$ is

$A$ straight wire of length $\pi^2 \, m$ carries a current of $2 \, A$. The magnetic field due to it is measured at a point $1 \, cm$ away from it. If the wire is bent into a circle and carries the same current,what is the ratio of the magnetic field at its centre to the magnetic field measured in the first case?

An infinitely long straight wire carrying current $I$ is bent in a planar shape as shown in the diagram. The radius of the circular part is $r$. The magnetic field at the centre $O$ of the circular loop is:

$A$ long insulated copper wire is closely wound as a spiral of $N$ turns. The spiral has inner radius $a$ and outer radius $b$. The spiral lies in the $X-Y$ plane and a steady current $I$ flows through the wire. The $Z$-component of the magnetic field at the center of the spiral is

Two circular loops $L_1$ and $L_2$ of wire carrying equal and opposite currents are placed parallel to each other with a common axis. The radius of loop $L_1$ is $R_1$ and that of $L_2$ is $R_2$. The distance between the centres of the loops is $\sqrt{3} R_1$. The magnetic field at the centre of $L_2$ shall be zero if
