उत्तर
(b) minimum at the axis of the wire
(c) maximum at the surface of the wire
A long, straight wire of radius R is carrying current i, which is uniformly distributed over its cross section. According to Ampere's law,
\[\oint \vec{B} . d \vec{l} = \mu_o i_{\text{inside}} \]
\[\text{ At surface,} \]
\[B \times 2\pi R = \mu_o i\]
\[ \Rightarrow B_{\text{ surface}} = \frac{\mu_o i}{2\pi R}\]
\[\text{ Inside}, B \times 2\pi r = \mu_o i' \text{for r }< R \]
Here i, is the current enclosed by the amperian loop drawn inside the wire.
Binside will be proportional to the distance from the axis.
On the axis
B =0
The magnetic fields from points on the cross section will point in opposite directions and will cancel each other at the centre.
\[\text{ Outside, B } \times 2\pi r = \mu_o i\]
\[ \Rightarrow B_{\text{ outside}} = \frac{\mu_o i}{2\pi r}, r > R\]
Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field is maximum at the surface of the wire and minimum at the axis of the wire
