Magnetic Field due to current in a circular loop
Magnetic Field due to Current in a Circular Loop
Just consider a loop of wire that forms a complete circle. We will see that the direction of current at point A is in the upward direction and the current at point B is in the downward direction.
Fix it on a cardboard with half loop above the cardboard and half below it. Join the free ends to a battery source through a switch and pass current through it. The wire passes through the cardboard at two points A and B. Using a Magnetic compass draw the magnetic field lines around the two points above the cardboard.
The lines are nearly concentric circles centered on the point through which the wire passes. The concentric circles representing the magnetic field around it would become larger and larger as we move away from the wire. By the time we reach at the centre of the circular loop, the arcs of these big circles would appear as straight lines. The lines near the centre of the loop are almost straight
Every point on the wire carrying current would give rise to the magnetic field appearing as straight lines at the center of the loop. By applying the right hand rule, it is easy to check that every section of the wire contributes to the magnetic field lines in the same direction within the loop. It can be noted that magnetic field at the centre of the loop is perpendicular to the plane of the loop.
The magnetic field produced by current carrying circular wire at a given point depends on the following factors:
1. Amount of current flowing through a wire The strength of magnetic field (B) due to a current carrying circular wire is directly proportional to the amount of current (I) flowing through it.
i.e. ....(i)
2. Number of turns of the circular wire The strength of the magnetic field due to a current carrying circular wire is directly proportional to the number of turns (N) of the wire.
i.e. ......(ii)
Thus, the strength of magnetic field produced by a current circular coil can be increased by
(a) increasing the number of turns of wire in the coil.
Which of the following are correct : (a) The strength of magnetic field produced by a current circular coil can be increased by increasing the current flowing through the coil. (b) The strength of magnetic field produced by a current circular coil can be increased by decreasing the radius of the soil.

Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.

8thA marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
Archit Segal
7thOne of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.

10thMy experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
Ayan Ghosh
8thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
Shivam Rana
7thIt was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
Cheshta
10thIt has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
Barkha Arora
10thAbhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
Manish Kumar
10thMy experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
Hiya Gupta
8thIt was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
