An infinitely long straight wire carrying current $I$ is bent in a planar shape as shown in the diagram. The radius of the circular part is $r$. The magnetic field at the centre $O$ of the circular loop is:

  • A
    $\frac{\mu_0}{2 \pi} \frac{ I }{ r }(\pi+1) \hat{ i }$
  • B
    $-\frac{\mu_0}{2 \pi} \frac{ I }{ r }(\pi-1) \hat{ i }$
  • C
    $\frac{\mu_0}{2 \pi} \frac{ I }{ r }(\pi-1) \hat{ i }$
  • D
    $-\frac{\mu_0}{2 \pi} \frac{ I }{ r }(\pi+1) \hat{ i }$
