$PQ$ and $RS$ are long parallel conductors separated by a certain distance. $M$ is the midpoint between them (see the figure). The net magnetic field at $M$ is $B$. Now,the current $2 \text{ A}$ is switched off. The field at $M$ now becomes

  • A
    $2 \text{ B}$
  • B
    $B$
  • C
    $\frac{B}{2}$
  • D
    $3 \text{ B}$
