Q121
The magnetic field at the centre of a circular coil of radius r, due to current I flowing through it, is B. The magnetic field at a point along the axis at a distance from the centre is :
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
Clearly, the magnetic fields at a point
equidistant from
and
will have directions perpendicular to each other, as they are placed normal to each other. Resultant field,
But
and
or,
