Two parallel wires carry currents $i_1$ and $i_2$ $(i_1 > i_2)$. When the currents are in the same direction,the magnetic field at a point midway between the wires is $10 \, \mu T$. When the direction of $i_2$ is reversed,the magnetic field at that point becomes $30 \, \mu T$. What is the ratio $\frac{i_1}{i_2}$?

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

$A$ non-conducting disc of radius $R$ has a surface charge density which varies with distance from the centre as $\sigma(r) = \sigma_0 \left[1 + \sqrt{\frac{r}{R}}\right]$, where $\sigma_0$ is a constant. The disc rotates about its axis with angular velocity $\omega$. If $B$ is the magnitude of magnetic induction at the centre, then $\frac{B}{\mu_0 \sigma_0 \omega R}$ will be
