The fractional change in the magnetic field intensity at a distance $r$ from the centre on the axis of a current-carrying coil of radius $a$ to the magnetic field intensity at the centre of the same coil is: (Take $r << a$)

  • A
    $\frac{3}{2} \frac{a^{2}}{r^{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3} \frac{a^{2}}{r^{2}}$

    $\frac{2}{3} \frac{r^{2}}{a^{2}}$
  • D
