- $\frac{\mu_0 i}{2 r}\left(1+\frac{1}{\pi}\right)$
- $\frac{\mu_0 i}{2 r}\left(1+\frac{2}{\pi}\right)$
- $\frac{\mu_0 i}{2 r}\left(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{\pi}\right)$
- $\frac{\mu_0 i}{2 r}\left(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2 \pi}\right)$

The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Applying Biot-Savart’s Law: \[ B_p = \left( \frac{\mu_0 I}{4r} + \frac{\mu_0 I}{4\pi r} \right) = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2r} \left( \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2\pi} \right) \]

- Find the magnetic field at a point 5 cm away from a long straight wire carrying current \( I = 20\,A \).
- Consider a long thin conducting wire carrying a uniform current \( I \). A particle having mass \( M \) and charge \( q \) is released at a distance \( a \) from the wire with a speed \( v_0 \) along the direction of current in the wire. The particle gets attracted to the wire due to magnetic force. The particle turns round when it is at distance \( x \) from the wire. The value of \( x \) is:

Concepts Used:
Electromagnetic Induction
Electromagnetic Induction is a current produced by the voltage production due to a changing magnetic field. This happens in one of the two conditions:-
- When we place the conductor in a changing magnetic field.
- When the conductor constantly moves in a stationary field.
Formula:
The electromagnetic induction is mathematically represented as:-
e=N × d∅.dt
Where
- e = induced voltage
- N = number of turns in the coil
- Φ = Magnetic flux (This is the amount of magnetic field present on the surface)
- t = time
