Problem

Points A, B, and C lie in a plane perpendicular to an infinitely long, straight wire carrying current II out of the page. Point A is 1 cm from the wire, point B is 2 cm away, and point C is 3 cm away. Which ranking correctly orders the magnitudes of the magnetic field at the three points? a) BA=BB=BCB_A = B_B = B_C b) BC>BB>BAB_C > B_B > B_A c) BA>BB>BCB_A > B_B > B_C d) BA>BC>BBB_A > B_C > B_B
