$A$ cell is connected between the points $A$ and $C$ of a circular conductor $ABCD$ of center $O$ with angle $AOC = 60^o$. If $B_1$ and $B_2$ are the magnitudes of the magnetic fields at $O$ due to the currents in $ABC$ and $ADC$ respectively,the ratio $B_1/B_2$ is

Two concentric coplanar circular loops of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ carry currents $i_1$ and $i_2$ in opposite directions (one clockwise and the other anticlockwise). The magnetic induction at the center of the loops is half that due to $i_1$ alone at the center. If $r_2 = 2r_1$,find the value of $\frac{i_2}{i_1}$.
