$A$ long straight wire of circular cross-section of radius $a$ is carrying a steady current. The current is distributed uniformly across the cross-section of the wire. The ratio of the magnetic fields at points $0.5a$ and $1.5a$ from the centre of the wire is

  • A
    $1: 1$
  • B
    $2: 3$
  • C
    $1: 2$
  • D
    $3: 4$

Let $B_1$ be the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of a circular coil of radius $R$ carrying current $I$. Let $B_2$ be the magnitude of the magnetic field at an axial distance $x$ from the center. For $x : R = 3 : 4$,the ratio $\frac{B_2}{B_1}$ is:

Two infinitely long wires each carrying the same current $i$ and pointing in $+y$ direction are placed in the $xy$ plane,at $x=-2 \ cm$ and $x=1 \ cm$. An electron is fired with speed $U$ from the origin making an angle of $+45^{\circ}$ from the $x$-axis. The force on the electron at the instant it is fired is [$B_0$ is the magnitude of the field at the origin due to the wire at $x=1 \ cm$ alone].
