    A current I enters a circular coil of radius R branches into two parts and then recombines as shown in the circuit diagram. The resultant magnetic field at the centre of the coil is

    A)  zero                     

    B)         \[\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2R}\]

    C)  \[\frac{3}{4}\left( \frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2R} \right)\]         

    D)         \[\frac{1}{4}\left( \frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2R} \right)\]

    E)  \[\frac{1}{2}\left( \frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2R} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Magnetic field at B \[{{B}_{1}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{2\pi }\frac{I\Delta I}{r}\] Magnetic field at A                 \[{{B}_{2}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{2\pi }\frac{I\Delta I}{r}\] The resultant magnetic field at the centre                 \[|{{B}_{A}}|-|{{B}_{B}}|=0\] So magnetic field becomes zero.
