Question

A current loop $ABCD$ is held fixed on the plane of the paper as shown in the figure. The arcs $BC$ (radius $= b$) and $DA$ (radius $=a$) of the loop are joined by two straight wires $AB$ and $CD$. A steady current $I$ is flowing in the loop. Angle made by $AB$ and $CD$ at the origin $O$ is ${30^ \circ }.$ Another straight thin wire steady current ${I_1}$ flowing out of the plane of the paper is kept at the origin.

The magnitude of the magnetic field $(B)$ due to the loop $ABCD$ at the origin $(O)$ is :

${{{\mu _0}I\left( {b - a} \right)} \over {24ab}}$

${{{\mu _0}I} \over {4\pi }}\left[ {{{b - a} \over {ab}}} \right]$

$${{{\mu _0}I} \over {4\pi }}\left[ {2\left( {b - a} \right) + {\raise0.5ex\hbox{$\scriptstyle \pi $} \kern-0.1em/\kern-0.15em \lower0.25ex\hbox{$\scriptstyle 3$}}\left( {a + b} \right)} \right]$$

zero
