    The vector form of Biot-Savarts law for a current carrying element is

    A)  \[d\mathbf{\vec{B}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\frac{Id\mathbf{\vec{1}}\,\sin \,\phi }{{{r}^{2}}}\]

    B)         \[\mathbf{\vec{B}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\frac{Idl\,\mathbf{\vec{r}}}{{{r}^{2}}}\]

    C)  \[d\mathbf{\vec{B}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\frac{Id\mathbf{\vec{1}}\times \,\mathbf{\vec{r}}}{{{r}^{3}}}\]

    D)  \[d\,\mathbf{\vec{B}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\frac{Id\mathbf{\vec{1}}\times \,\mathbf{\vec{r}}}{{{r}^{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Biot-Savaits law,                 \[dB=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\frac{Idl\sin \theta }{{{r}^{2}}}\] In vector form,                 \[d\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{B}}}\,=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\frac{Id\overset{\to }{\mathop{\mathbf{l}}}\,\times \widehat{\mathbf{r}}}{{{r}^{2}}}\]
