Solution
b and c
Explanation:
Ampere’s law gives another method to calculate the magnetic field due to a given current distribution.
Line integral of the magnetic field `vecB` around any closed curve is equal to μ0 times the net current i threading through the area enclosed by the curve, i.e.
`oint vecB * vec(dl) = mu_0 sumi = mu_0 (i_1 + i_3 - i_2)`
Total current crossing the above area is `(i_1 + i_3 - i_2)`. Any current outside the area is not included in net current. (Outward ⊙ → + ve, Inward ⊗ → – ve)
Applying the Ampere's circuital law, we have
`ointB* dl = i_0 (I - I) = 0` (because current is in opposite sense)
Also, there may be a point on C where B and dl are perpendicular and hence, `oint_c B*dl = 0`
