JEE MAIN - Physics (2019 - 8th April Evening Slot - No. 4)

Two very long, straight, and insulated wires are kept at 90° angle from each other in xy-plane as shown in the figure. These wires carry currents of equal magnitude I, whose directions are shown in the figure. The net magnetic field at point P will be : JEE Main 2019 (Online) 8th April Evening Slot Physics - Magnetic Effect of Current Question 155 English
$${{ + {\mu _0}I} \over {\pi d}}\left( {\mathop z\limits^ \wedge } \right)$$
$$ - {{{\mu _0}I} \over {2\pi d}}\left( {\mathop x\limits^ \wedge + \mathop y\limits^ \wedge } \right)$$
Zero
$$ {{{\mu _0}I} \over {2\pi d}}\left( {\mathop x\limits^ \wedge + \mathop y\limits^ \wedge } \right)$$

Explanation

Magnetic field at point P

$${\overrightarrow B _{net}} = {{{\mu _0}i} \over {2\pi d}}( - \widehat k) + {{{\mu _0}i} \over {2\pi d}}(\widehat k) = 0$$
