A circular loop is kept in that vertical plane which contains the north-south direction. It carries a current that is towards south at the topmost point. Let $A$ be a point on axis of the circle to the east of it and $B$ a point on this axis to the west of it. The magnetic field due to the loop :-

  • A

    is towards east at $A$ and towards west at $B$

  • B

    is towards west at $A$ and towards east at $B$

  • C

    is towards east at both $A$ and $B$

  • D

    is towards west at both $A$ and $B$

Two concentric circular coils $X$ and $Y$ of radii $16\; cm$ and $10\;cm$ respectively, lie in the same vertical plane containing the north to south direction. Coil $X$ has $20$ turns and carries a current of $16\; A$ coil $Y$ has $25$ turns and carries a current of $18\; A$. The sense of the current in $X$ is anticlockwise, and clockwise in $Y$, for an observer looking at the coils facing west. Give the magnitude and direction of the net magnetic field due to the coils at their centre.

The magnetic induction at a point $P$ which is distant $4\, cm$ from a long current carrying wire is ${10^{ - 8}}\,Tesla$. The field of induction at a distance $12\, cm $ from the same current would be

One of the two identical conducing wires of length $L$ is bent in the form of a circular loop and the other one into a circular coil of $N$ identical turns. If the same current is passed in both, the ratio of the magnetic field at the central of the loop $(B_L)$ to that at the centre of the coil $(B_C),$; $.\,\frac {B_L}{B_C}$ will be

In an ionised sodium atom, an electron is moving in a circular path of radius $r$ with angular velocity $\omega $. The magnetic induction in $wb/m^2$ produced at the nucleus will be

In the diagram, $I_1$ , $I_2$ are the strength of the currents in the loop and infinite long straight conductor respectively. $OA = AB = R$ . The net magnetic field at the centre $O$ is zero. Then the ratio of the currents in the loop and the straight conductor is
