Consider a tightly wound $100$ turn coil of radius $10 \; cm$,carrying a current of $1 \; A$. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at the centre of the coil?

The ratio of the magnetic field at the centre of a current-carrying coil of radius $r$ to the magnetic field at a distance $r$ from the centre of the coil on its axis is $\sqrt{x}: 1$. The value of $x$ is $............$

Two concentric rings are kept in the same plane. The number of turns in each ring is $25$. Their radii are $50 \text{ cm}$ and $200 \text{ cm}$,and they carry electric currents of $0.1 \text{ A}$ and $0.2 \text{ A}$ respectively in mutually opposite directions. The magnitude of the magnetic field produced at their centre is . . . . . . $\text{T}$.

$A$ long straight wire of radius $r$ carries a steady current $I$. The current is uniformly distributed over its cross-section. The ratio $\left(\frac{B}{B^1}\right)$ of the magnetic field $B$ and $B^1$ at radial distances $\frac{r}{2}$ and $3r$ respectively,from the axis of the wire is:
