$A$ wire bent in the shape of a regular $n$-polygonal loop carries a steady current $I$. Let $l$ be the perpendicular distance of a given segment and $R$ be the distance of a vertex from the centre of the loop. The magnitude of the magnetic field at the centre of the loop is given by

  • A
    $\frac{n \mu_0 I}{2 \pi l} \sin (\pi / n)$
  • B
    $\frac{n \mu_0 I}{2 \pi R} \sin (\pi / n)$
  • C
    $\frac{n \mu_0 I}{2 \pi l} \cos (\pi / n)$
  • D
    $\frac{n \mu_0 I}{2 \pi R} \cos (\pi / n)$

$A$ circular loop of radius $r$ of conducting wire connected with a voltage source of zero internal resistance produces a magnetic field $B$ at its centre. If instead,a circular loop of radius $2r$,made of the same material and having the same cross-section,is connected to the same voltage source,what will be the magnetic field at its centre?
