Biot-Savart Law & Circular Coils

Two insulated circular loops A and B of radius 'aa' carrying a current of 'II' in the anti clockwise direction as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the magnetic induction at the centre will be:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Each loop gives μ0I2a\dfrac{\mu_0 I}{2a} at the common centre.
  2. The loops are in perpendicular planes, so the fields are perpendicular.
  3. B=2⋅μ0I2a=μ0I2aB = \sqrt{2}\cdot\dfrac{\mu_0 I}{2a} = \dfrac{\mu_0 I}{\sqrt{2}a}
  4. So the answer is (b).
