1.5 $$ \times $$ 10$$-$$5 T
1.0 $$ \times $$ 10$$-$$5 T

Explanation

Magnetic field due to circular arc

$$\overrightarrow B = {{{\mu _0}\,i\,\theta } \over {4\pi r}}$$

Due to QR arc magnetic field is outward direction of the plane.

And due to PS arc magnetic field is inward direction of the plane,

So, net magnetic field,

$$\overrightarrow B = \left( {{{\overrightarrow B }_{QR}} - {{\overrightarrow B }_{PS}}} \right)\widehat K$$

$$\overrightarrow B = {{{\mu _0}i\theta } \over {4\pi }}\left( {{1 \over {3 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}} - {1 \over {5 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}}} \right)\widehat K$$

$$\overrightarrow B = {10^{ - 7}} \times 10 \times {\pi \over 4}\left( {{1 \over {3 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}} - {1 \over {5 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}}} \right)\widehat K$$

$$\left| {\overrightarrow B } \right| = 1 \times {10^{ - 5}}\,\,T$$
