(628)
The formula to calculate the magnetic field at the center of a current carrying circular loop is given by
…
where,
is the permeability of free space, i is the current and R is the radius of the loop.

B V , B H are the magnetic field due to the vertical and the horizontal loop, which by magnitude are equal. The resultant magnetic field (B net ) at the center is, then, given by


= 628 x 10 -8 T
