$A$ wire has three different sections as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the magnetic field produced at the centre '$O$' of the semicircle by the three sections together is $(\mu_0 = \text{permeability of free space})$:

  • A
    $\frac{\mu_0 I}{4 R}$
  • B
    $\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 R}$
  • C
    $\frac{\mu_0 I}{4 \pi R}$
  • D
    $\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi R}$
