    Which of the following graphs shows the variation of magnetic field B, with distance from a long current carrying conductor?

    A)   

    B)  

    C)   

    D)  

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    For a long conductor, magnetic field at distance r is \[B=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\times \frac{2l}{r}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}l}{2\pi r}\] \[\therefore \] \[B\propto \frac{1}{r}\] So, graph between B and r should be a parabola as given in option [c].
