    Two long thin wires ABC and DEF are arranged as shown. They carry current/as shown. The magnitude of the magnetic field at O is:

    A)  zero                 

    B)  \[\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{4\pi a}\]

    C)  \[\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2\pi a}\]                  

    D)  \[\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2\sqrt{2}\pi a}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Sections AB and \[D\varepsilon \] produce no field at O. Sections BC and  EF produce equa fields at O magnetic field at O \[{{B}_{1}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{4\pi a}\,\,\left[ \cos \,o-cos\frac{\pi }{2} \right]\] [Because wire is long] \[\Rightarrow \]            \[{{B}_{1}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{4\pi a}\] (in magnitude) Similar  \[{{B}_{2}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{4\pi a}\] (in magnitude) \[\therefore \]   Net field at 0, \[B={{B}_{1}}+{{B}_{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]            \[B=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2\pi a}\]
