A current loop consists of two identical semicircular parts each of radius 
, one lying in the x‐y plane and the other in x‐z plane. If the current in the loop is 
The resultant magnetic field due to the two semicircular parts at their common center is
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
The loop mentioned in the question must look like one as shown in the figure.
Magnetic field at the center due to semicircular loop lying in x‐y plane, 
negative z direction.
Similarly field due to loop in x‐z plane, 
in negative 
direction.
Magnitude of resultant magnetic field,
