NTA Abhyas JEE Main2020PhysicsMagnetic Effects of CurrentPractice
The magnetic field at the point of intersection of diagonals of a square loop of side L carrying a current I is
Options
- Aμ 0 I π L
- B2 μ 0 I π L
- C2 μ 0 I π L
- D2 2 μ 0 I π L
Correct answer
D. 2 2 μ 0 I π L
Step-by-step solution
From Biot-Savart's law, magnetic field due to current carrying conductor is B =   μ 0 4 π i r   sin ⁡ ϕ 1 + sin ⁡ ϕ 2 Where, ϕ 1 = 45 ° , ϕ 2 = 45 ° B = μ 0 4 π   . i L 2 1 2 + 1 2 = μ 0 i 2 2 π L Since there are four sides, the total magnetic field is B net = 4 B = 2 2 μ 0 i π L
