Given below are two statements: Statement I : Biot-Savart's law gives us the expression for the magnetic field strength of an infinitesimal current element I d l of a current carrying conductor only. Statement II : Biot-Savart's law is analogous to Coulomb's inverse square law of charge q , with the former being related to the field produced by a scalar source, I d l while the latter being produced by a v

Options

  1. ABoth Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
  2. BStatement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect
  3. CStatement I is incorrect and Statement II is correct
  4. DBoth Statement I and Statement II are correct

Correct answer

A. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

Step-by-step solution

Biot–Savart's law is an equation describing the magnetic field generated by a constant electric current(through conductor OR due to charges moving in space like a beam). It relates the magnetic field to the magnitude, direction, length, and proximity of the electric current. Statement II is false as charge q is not a vector.
