Question:

A wire bent into circular loop A carries current I. The same wire is bent into loop B with two turns, same current. Find the ratio of magnetic fields at the centers of A to B.

Show Hint

Consider the relationship between circumference and radius with the number of turns.

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

B_A = µ₀I/(2r_A). B_B = µ₀I/r_B (doubled for two turns). Since the wire length is constant, 2πr_A = 4πr_B, so r_B = r_A/2. Thus, B_A/B_B = (1/4).
