Find the position of point from wire 'B' where net magnetic field is zero due to following current distribution
A
4 cm
B
C
D
2 cm
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Suppose P is the point between the conductors where net magnetic field is zero. So at P |Magnetic field due to conductor 1| = |Magnetic field due to conductor 2|
i.e. 
⇒ ⇒ 
⇒ ⇒ 
Hence position from B
