A circular coil (10 turns, r = 5 cm, 3 A) and a long wire in its plane 40 cm from the centre carrying 20 A give fields at the centre that are in the same direction. Which option is correct for the resultant at the centre?
A circular coil (10 turns, r = 5 cm, 3 A) and a long wire in its plane 40 cm from the centre carrying 20 A give fields at the centre that are in the same direction. Which option is correct for the resultant at the centre?
B = 3.87×10−4 T, along the coil’s field
B = 3.77×10−4 T, along the coil’s field
B = 3.67×10−4 T, along the coil’s field
B = 3.87×10−4 T, opposite to the coil’s field
