Expert-verifiedIn Fig. 29-44 point is at distance on the perpendicular bisector of a straight wire of length . carrying current. (Note that the wire is not long.) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at due to i?
The magnitude of the magnetic field at due to i is
Use the formula of Biot-Savarts law to find the magnitude of the field at due to i
Formula:
According to Bio-Savarts law
If r makes an angle with l then
And
Integrating an equation of Bio-Savarts law
Solve further as:
Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field at due to i is
