$A$ linear wire carries a current $I$. $A$ single-turn loop is formed from it,and the magnetic field at the center is $B$. If a three-turn loop is formed from the same wire,what will be the magnetic field at the center?

Identical currents flow in two perpendicular wires,as shown in the figure. The wires are very close but do not touch. The magnetic field can be zero:

Two concentric coils each of radius equal to $2\pi \, cm$ are placed at right angles to each other. $3 \, A$ and $4 \, A$ are the currents flowing in each coil respectively. The magnetic induction in $Wb/m^2$ at the centre of the coils will be $(\mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, Wb/A \cdot m)$.
