NEET2015PhysicsMagnetic Effects of CurrentActual
A square loop is made by a uniform conductor wire as shown in figure The net magnetic field at the centre of the loop if side length of the square is a
Options
- A₀ i 2 a
- Bzero
- C₀ i^2 a^2
- DNone of these
Correct answer
B. zero
Step-by-step solution
The current will be equally divided at junction P . The field at the centre due to wires P Q and S R will be equal in magnitude but opposite in the direction, so its effective field will be zero. Similarly, net field due to wires P S and Q R is zero. Therefore, the net field at the centre of the loop is zero.
