Question 32: Magnetism and Matter

Question

An infinite wire has a circular bend of radius a, and carrying a current I as shown in the figure. The magnitude of magnetic field at the origin O of the arc is given by:

Accepted Answer

$$\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{B}_1=\frac{\mu_0 \mathrm{i}}{4 \pi \mathrm{a}} \otimes \
& \mathrm{~B}_2=\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{\mathrm{i}}{\mathrm{a}}\left(\frac{3 \pi}{2}ight) \otimes \
& \mathrm{B}_3=0 \
& \mathrm{~B}=\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{\mathrm{i}}{\mathrm{a}}\left(1 \frac{3 \pi}{2}ight) \otimes
\end{aligned}$$

Answer

$\frac{\mu_0}{2 \pi} \frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{a}}\left[\frac{\pi}{2}+2\right]$

Answer

$\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{a}}\left[\frac{3 \pi}{2}+1\right]$

Answer

$\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{a}}\left[\frac{\pi}{2}+1\right]$

Answer

$\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{a}}\left[\frac{3 \pi}{2}+2\right]$
