$A$ single current-carrying loop of wire with current $I$ flowing in an anticlockwise direction when seen from the $+ve\;z$ direction,lying in the $xy$ plane,is shown in the figure. The plot of the $\hat{j}$ component of the magnetic field $(B_y)$ at a distance $a$ (less than the radius of the coil) on the $yz$ plane versus the $z$ coordinate looks like:

$A$ circular coil of radius $R$ is carrying a current $I_{1}$ in an anticlockwise sense. $A$ long straight wire is carrying a current $I_{2}$ in the negative direction of the $x$-axis. Both are placed in the same plane and the distance between the centre of the coil and the straight wire is $d$. The magnetic field at the centre of the coil will be zero for the value of $d$ equal to:

An electron revolves in a circle of radius $0.4 \text{ Å}$ with a speed of $10^6 \text{ m/s}$ in a hydrogen atom. The magnetic field produced at the centre of the orbit due to the motion of the electron (in Tesla) is: $\left[\mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \text{ H/m}, q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}\right]$

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 $(Id\vec{l})$ 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 vector source,$Id\vec{l}$,while the latter is produced by a scalar source,$q$. In light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

$A$ circular arc of radius $r$ carrying current $I$ subtends an angle $\frac{\pi}{8}$ at its centre. The radius of the metal wire is uniform. The magnetic induction at the centre of the circular arc is ($\mu_0 =$ permeability of free space).

Two parallel wires of equal lengths are separated by a distance of $3 \ m$ from each other. The currents flowing through the $1^{\text{st}}$ and $2^{\text{nd}}$ wires are $3 \ A$ and $4.5 \ A$ respectively in opposite directions. Find the resultant magnetic field at the midpoint between the wires $(\mu_0 = \text{permeability of free space})$.
