Two long parallel wires carrying currents $8 \text{ A}$ and $15 \text{ A}$ in opposite directions are placed at a distance of $7 \text{ cm}$ from each other. $A$ point $P$ is equidistant from both the wires such that the lines joining the point $P$ to the wires are perpendicular to each other. The magnetic field at $P$ is $X \times 10^{-6} \text{ T}$. Find $X$. (Given: $\sqrt{2} = 1.4, \mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \text{ SI unit}$)

Consider two infinitely long wires parallel to the $Z$-axis carrying the same current $I$ in the positive $Z$-direction. One wire passes through point $L$ at coordinates $(-1, 1)$ and the other wire passes through point $M$ at coordinates $(-1, -1)$. The resultant magnetic field at the origin $O$ will be

$A$ long solenoid with $1000 \, \text{turns/m}$ has a core material with relative permeability $500$ and volume $10^{3} \, \text{cm}^{3}$. If the core material is replaced by another material having relative permeability of $750$ with the same volume, maintaining the same current of $0.75 \, \text{A}$ in the solenoid, the fractional change in the magnetic moment of the core would be approximately $\left(\frac{x}{499}\right)$. Find the value of $x$.

$A$ wire of length $L = 1 \ m$ carries a constant current $I$. The wire is bent to form a single circular loop of radius $R$. The magnetic field at the centre of this loop is $B$. If the same wire is now bent to form a circular loop with $n = 4$ turns,what will be the magnetic field $B'$ at the centre of this new loop?

$A$ straight wire carrying a current of $12\; A$ is bent into a semi-circular arc of radius $2.0\; cm$ as shown in Figure $(a)$. Consider the magnetic field $B$ at the centre of the arc.

$(b)$ In what way does the contribution to $B$ from the semicircle differ from that of a circular loop and in what way does it resemble?
$(c)$ Would your answer be different if the wire were bent into a semi-circular arc of the same radius but in the opposite way as shown in Figure $(b)$?
