    Magnetic field at a distance r from an infinitely long straight conductor carrying a steady current varies as

    A)  \[\frac{1}{{{r}^{2}}}\]    

    B)  \[\frac{1}{r}\]     

    C)  \[\frac{1}{{{r}^{3}}}\]    

    D)  \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{r}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    : Magnetic field due to an infinitely long straight conductor carrying steady current at a distance r from it is given by \[B=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}2I}{4\pi r}\] or  \[B\propto \frac{1}{r}\]
