NTA Abhyas JEE Main2020PhysicsMagnetic Effects of CurrentPractice
A wire of length L carrying a current I is bent into a circle. The magnitude of the magnetic field at the centre of the circle is
Options
- Aπμ 0 I L
- Bμ 0 I 2 L
- C2 πμ 0 I L
- Dμ 0 I 2 πL
Correct answer
A. πμ 0 I L
Step-by-step solution
Length L = circumference of circle = 2 πR ⇒    R = L 2 π ∴   Magnetic field at the centre of circular current loop is B = μ 0 I 2 R = μ 0 I 2   L × 2 π B = μ 0 πI L
