Two very thin metallic wires placed along $X$ and $Y$-axis carry equal currents as shown in the figure. $AB$ and $CD$ are lines at $45^\circ$ with the axes,with the origin of the axes at $O$. The magnetic field will be zero on the line:

  • A
    $AB$
  • B
    $CD$
  • C
    Segment $OB$ only of line $AB$
  • D
    Segment $OC$ only of line $CD$

$A$ current carrying circular coil of radius $R$ produces magnetic field $B_1$ at an axial point $P$ at a distance $x$ from its centre and $B_2$ at point $Q$ placed at its centre respectively. If $B_2 = 8B_1$, the value of $x$ is

Two parallel wires carry currents $i_1$ and $i_2$ $(i_1 > i_2)$. When the currents are in the same direction,the magnetic field at a point midway between the wires is $10 \, \mu T$. When the direction of $i_2$ is reversed,the magnetic field at that point becomes $30 \, \mu T$. What is the ratio $\frac{i_1}{i_2}$?
