NTA Abhyas JEE Main2020PhysicsMagnetic Effects of CurrentPractice
An infinitely long wire carrying current I is along Y axis such that its one end is at point A(0, b) while the wire extends upto + ∞ . The magnitude of magnetic field strength at point (a, 0).
Options
- Aμ 0 I 4 π a 1 + b a 2 + b 2
- Bμ 0 I 4 π a 1 - b a 2 + b 2
- Cμ 0 I 4 π a 1 - a a 2 + b 2
- DNone of these
Correct answer
B. μ 0 I 4 π a 1 - b a 2 + b 2
Step-by-step solution
B = μ 0 I 4 π i a sin 90 o + sin - θ = μ 0 4 π i a 1 - sin θ = μ 0 4 π i a 1 - b a 2 + b 2
