A cell is connected between the pointsA  and Cof a circular conductorABCDwithOas centre and angleAOC=60°.IfB1 and B2are the magnitudes of the magnetic fields atOdue to the currents inABC and  ADCrespectively, then ratioB1B2is


Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

currents in ABC and ADC will not be the same because of the resistance and B also depends on length .


i 1 = 1 6 ×1= 1 6 A i 2 = 5 6 ×1= 5 6 A B ABC = μ 0 i 1 4πr = μ 0 4πr ( 1 6 )( 15 9 π ) B ADC = μ 0 i 2 4πr = μ 0 4π ( 5 6 )( π 3 ) 

equal and opposite magnetic field due to arc ABC & ADC , so net magnetic field at O is zero.
