The magnetic field normal to the plane of a coil of $N$ turns and radius $r$ which carries a current $i$ is measured on the axis of the coil at a distance $h$ from the centre of the coil. This is smaller than the field at the centre by the fraction,

  • A
    $\frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{h^2}{r^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{h^2}{r^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{r^2}{h^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{r^2}{h^2}$
