Two concentric coils each of radius equal to $4 \pi \text{ cm}$ are placed at right angles to each other. If $10 \text{ A}$ and $24 \text{ A}$ are the currents flowing through the coils,respectively,the magnetic induction at the center of the coils will be

Five long wires $A, B, C, D$ and $E$,each carrying current $I$ are arranged to form edges of a pentagonal prism as shown in the figure. Each carries current out of the plane of the paper.
$(a)$ What will be the magnetic induction at a point on the axis $O$? The axis is at a distance $R$ from each wire.
$(b)$ What will be the field if the current in one of the wires (say $A$) is switched off?

The magnitude of the magnetic field at $O$ due to a current-carrying loop as shown in the figure is, where $O$ is the center of two circular portions with radii $1 \, cm$ and $2 \, cm$ respectively. (Take the value of current $I = \frac{1.2}{\pi} \, A$)

An infinitely long wire,located on the $z$-axis,carries a current $I$ along the $+z$-direction and produces the magnetic field $\vec{B}$. The magnitude of the line integral $\int \vec{B} \cdot d\vec{l}$ along a straight line from the point $(-\sqrt{3} a, a, 0)$ to $(a, a, 0)$ is given by [$\mu_0$ is the magnetic permeability of free space.]
