Answer:

1) A WIRE CARRYING current I and other carrying 2I in the same direction produces a MAGNETIC field B at the mid point. What will be the field when 2I wire is switched off [AFMC 2005]

A) B / 2

B) 2B

C) B

D) 48

Correct Answer: C

Solution :

When two parallel conductors carrying current I and 2I in same direction, then magnetic field at the midpoint is \[B=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}2l}{2\pi R}-\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2\pi r}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2\pi r}\] When current 2I is switched off then magnetic field due to conductor carrying current I is \[B=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2\pi r}\].
