A long, straight wire of radius r carries a current i and is placed horizontally in a uniform magnetic field B pointing vertically upward. The current is uniformly distributed over its cross section. (a) At what points will the resultant magnetic field have maximum magnitude? What will be the maximum magnitude? (b) What will be the minimum magnitude of the resultant magnetic field?

उत्तर
(a) As the wire in question is carrying current, so it will also generate a magnetic field around it. And for a long straight wire it will be maximum at the mid-point called P.
Now,
Magnetic field generated by the current carrying wire \[= \frac{\mu_o i}{2\pi r}\]
Net magnetic field = \[B + \frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi r}\]
(b) Magnetic field B = 0
when \[r < \frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi B}\]
Clearly,
B = 0
when
\[r = \frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi B}\]
But when \[r > \frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi B}\]
Net magnetic field = \[B - \frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi r}\]

Two infinitely long straight parallel wires, '1' and '2', carrying steady currents I1 and I2 in the same direction are separated by a distance d. Obtain the expression for the magnetic field `vecB`due to the wire '1' acting on wire '2'.
