As shown in the figure, two infinitely long, identical wires are bent by 90° and placed in such a way that the segments LP and QM are along the X -axis, while segments PS and QN are parallel to the Y-axis. If OP = OQ = 4 cm, and the magnitude of the magnetic field at O is 10-4 T and the two wires carry equal currents (see figure), the magnitude of the current in each wire and the direction of the magnetic field at O will be (Take, μ0 = 4π × 10-7 NA-2) |
