Question diagram
A
μ₀i4R pointed away from the page
B
μ₀i4R[1 − 2π] pointed away from page
C
μ₀i4R[1 − 2π] pointed into the page
D
μ₀i4R pointed into the page

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

Using Biot-Savart law, calculate the magnetic field due to a semi-circular wire. The field is μ0i/4R [1 - 2/π] directed away from the page.
