उत्तर

Consider a straight conductor of infinite length carrying current I and the direction of magnetic field lines. Since the wire is geometrically cylindrical in shape C and symmetrical about its axis, we construct an Amperian loop in the form of a circular shape at a distance r from the centre of the conductor. From the Ampere’s law, we get


Ampèrian loop for current carrying straight wire

`oint_"C" vec"B"*"d"vec"l" = mu_0 "I"`

Where dl is the line element along the amperian loop (tangent to the circular loop). Hence, the angle between the magnetic field vector and line element is zero. Therefore,

`oint_"C" "B"*"dl" = mu_0 "I"`

where I is the current enclosed by the Amperian loop. Due to the symmetry, the magnitude of the magnetic field is uniform over the Amperian loop, we can take B out of the integration.

`"B"oint_"C" "dl" = mu_0"I"`

For a circular loop, the circumference is 2πr, which implies,

`"B"int_hat"n"^(2pi"r") "dl" = mu_0 "I"`

`vec"B"*2pi"r" = mmu_0"I"`

`=> vec"B" = (mu_0"I")/(2pi"r")`

In vector form, the magnetic field is

`vec"B" = (mu_0"I")/(2pi"r")hat"n"`

Where `hat"n"` is the unit vector along the tangent to the Amperian loop. This perfectly agrees with the result obtained from Biot-Savarf s law as given in equation

`vec"B" = (mu_0"I")/(2pi"a") hat"n"`
