since the coil is tightly wound, we may take each circular element to have the same radius $R=10 cm =0.1 m .$ The number of turns $N=100 .$ The magnitude of the magnetic field is,

$B=\frac{\mu_{0} N I}{2 R}=\frac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 10^{2} \times 1}{2 \times 10^{-1}}$$=2 \pi \times 10^{-4}=6.28 \times 10^{-4} \;T$
