Circular loop of a wire and long straight wire carry currents $I_{c}$ and $I_{e}$, respectively as shown in figure. Assuming that these are placed in the same plane. The magnetic fields will be zero at the centre of the loop when the separation $H$ is [image:4_image77.emf]

(a) $\frac{\mu_{0}I_{c}}{2R} = \frac{\mu_{0}I}{2\pi H} \Rightarrow H = \frac{I_{e}R}{\pi I_{c}}$
