Question

The magnetic field at the centre of a circular coil of radius r is pi times that due to a long straight wire at a distance r from it, for equal currents. Figure here shows three cases : in all cases the circular part has radius r and straight ones are infinitely long. For same current the B field at the centre P in cases 1, 2, 3 have the ratio

  2. open parentheses negative fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction plus 1 close parentheses colon open parentheses fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction plus 1 close parentheses colon open parentheses fraction numerator 3 pi over denominator 4 end fraction plus fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses    
  3. negative fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction colon fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction colon 3 fraction numerator pi over denominator 4 end fraction    
  4. open parentheses negative fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction minus 1 close parentheses colon open parentheses fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction minus fraction numerator 1 over denominator 4 end fraction close parentheses colon open parentheses fraction numerator 3 pi over denominator 4 end fraction plus fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses    

The correct answer is: open parentheses negative fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses colon open parentheses fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses colon open parentheses fraction numerator 3 pi over denominator 4 end fraction minus fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses


    Case 1 : B subscript A end subscript equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator i over denominator r end fraction circled times

    B subscript B end subscript equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator pi i over denominator r end fraction¤
    B subscript C end subscript equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator i over denominator r end fraction¤
    So net magnetic field at the centre of case 1
    B subscript 1 end subscript equals B subscript B end subscript minus B subscript C end subscript minus B subscript A end subscript rightwards double arrow B subscript 1 end subscript equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator pi i over denominator r end fraction¤ ..... (i)
    Case 2 : As we discussed before magnetic field at the centre O in this case
    B subscript 2 end subscript equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator pi i over denominator r end fraction circled times ..... (ii)

    Case 3 : B subscript A end subscript equals 0
    B subscript B end subscript equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator left parenthesis 2 pi minus pi divided by 2 right parenthesis i over denominator r end fraction circled times
    B subscript C end subscript equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator i over denominator r end fraction¤
    equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator 3 pi i over denominator 2 r end fraction circled times

    So net magnetic field at the centre of case 3
    B subscript 3 end subscript equals fraction numerator mu subscript 0 end subscript over denominator 4 pi end fraction. fraction numerator i over denominator r end fraction open parentheses fraction numerator 3 pi over denominator 2 end fraction minus 1 close parentheses circled times..... (iii)
    From equation (i), (ii) and (iii)
    B subscript 1 end subscript colon B subscript 2 end subscript colon B subscript 3 end subscript equals pi ¤ : pi circled times open parentheses fraction numerator 3 pi over denominator 2 end fraction minus 1 close parentheses circled times equals negative fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction colon fraction numerator pi over denominator 2 end fraction colon open parentheses fraction numerator 3 pi over denominator 4 end fraction minus fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses
