A current i flows through a loop as shown in figure. The magnetic field at the Centre O is

Options

  1. A7μoi12r\dfrac{7{μ}_{o}i}{12r}& acting& downwards
  2. B5μoi12r\dfrac{5{μ}_{o}i}{12r} acting upwards
  3. C7μ0i12r\dfrac{7{μ}_{0}i}{12r} acting upwards
  4. D5μ0i12r\dfrac{5{μ}_{0}i}{12r} acting downwards

Correct answer

D. 5μ0i12r\dfrac{5{μ}_{0}i}{12r} acting downwards

Step-by-step solution

The angle, subtended by arc DEDE at OO is π2\dfrac{\pi}{2} and FCFC at O=3π2O = \dfrac{3\pi}{2} the effective magnetic field at OO is

B=BDE+BFCB = {B}_{DE} + {B}_{FC}

A current i flows through a loop as shown in figure. The magnetic field at the Centre O is

=μ0i4π(3r)×π2+μ0i4π(r)= \dfrac{{μ}_{0}i}{4\pi\left(3r\right)} \times \dfrac{\pi}{2} + \dfrac{{μ}_{0}i}{4\pi \left( r\right)} ×\times\left(\dfrac{3\pi}{2}\right)</p><p></p><p>= \dfrac{{μ}_{o}i}{8r} \left[\dfrac{1}{3} +3\right]</p><p>=5μoi12ractingdownwards</p></p><p>=\dfrac{5{μ}_{o}i}{12r}acting downwards</p>
