Problem

Which one of the following expressions gives the magnitude of the magnetic field

B

at a perpendicular distance

r

from an infinitely long straight conductor carrying a steady current

I

? a)

B = \dfrac{\mu_0 I r}{2\pi}

B = \dfrac{\mu_0 I}{4\pi r}

B = \dfrac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

B = \dfrac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r^{2}}
