Problem

A charged particle moves at speed vv and produces a magnetic field of magnitude BB at a point located a distance rr away, with the velocity vector perpendicular to the line joining the particle and the point. If the particle’s speed is doubled and its distance from the point is reduced to one-half, which of the following best describes the new field magnitude B′B' compared with BB? a) 4B4B b) 2B2B c) 8B8B d) B4\dfrac{B}{4}
