AIIMS 2019 Physics Magnetic Field due to Current MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
A current i flows through a circular loop as shown. Determine the magnetic field at the center of the loop.

A
π × [1 + 1/π] × 10⁻⁵ T
B
π × [1 + 1/π] × 10⁻⁶ T
C
π × [π + 1/π] × 10⁻⁶ T
D
[π + 1/π] × 10⁻⁶ T
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
To determine the magnetic field at the center of a circular loop carrying a current , we use the formula , where is the permeability of free space and is the radius of the loop. In this case, the magnetic field is expressed in terms of and the current, leading to the result , which corresponds to option A. Other options are incorrect as they either miscalculate the constants or the factors of instead of , leading to incorrect expressions for the magnetic field.
