Question
Consider a long, straight wire of cross-sectional area A carrying a current i. Let there be n free electrons per unit volume. An observer places himself on a trolley moving in the direction opposite to the current with a speed \[v = \frac{i}{\text{nAe}}\] and separation from the wire by a distance r. The magnetic field seen by the observer is very nearly
Options
