    A length of wire carries a steady current. It is bent first to form a circular of one turn. The same length is now bent more sharply to give a double loop of smaller radius. The magnetic field at centre caused by the same current is

    A)  double of its first value

    B)  quarter of its first value

    C)  four times of its first value                         

    D)  same as the first value

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    For first case the wire of length L is bent to form a circular coil of one turn, \[\operatorname{L}=2\pi {{r}_{1}}\] Similarly, for second case \[\operatorname{L} = 4\pi {{r}_{2}}\] Now,    \[2\pi {{r}_{1}}= 4\pi {{r}_{2}}\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,{{r}_{2}}=\frac{{{r}_{1}}}{2}\] \[{{B}_{1}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}l}{2{{r}_{1}}}\,\,\,and\,\,\,\,\,{{B}_{2}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}l}{2{{r}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{{{\mu }_{0}}l}{2{{r}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}\] \[{{B}_{2}}=2{{B}_{1}}\]
