$A$ metal sample carrying a current along $X-$ axis with density $J_x$ is subjected to a magnetic field $B_z$ (along $z-$ axis). The electric field $E_y$ developed along $Y-$ axis is directly proportional to $J_x$ as well as $B_z$. The constant of proportionality has $SI$ unit:

$A$ long thin-walled pipe of radius $R$ carries a current $I$ along its length. The current density is uniform over the circumference of the pipe. The magnetic field at the center of the pipe due to the quarter portion of the pipe shown is:
