An electron revolves in a circle of radius $0.4 \text{ Å}$ with a speed of $10^6 \text{ m/s}$ in a hydrogen atom. The magnetic field produced at the centre of the orbit due to the motion of the electron (in Tesla) is: $\left[\mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \text{ H/m}, q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}\right]$

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