Q.29. 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 ( μ₀ = 4π × 10⁻⁷N / A² )    [2019]
(1) 20 A, perpendicular out of the page
(2) 40 A, perpendicular out of the page
(3) 20 A, perpendicular into the page
(4) 40 A, perpendicular into the page

Ans: (3)
Magnetic field at O will be done by PS and QN
Given OP = OQ = 4 × 10⁻² 
Magnetic field at point O is B_net = 10⁻⁴ T
Magnetic field at Point O due to wire LP and MQ is zero.
Let current in each wire = i
Thus, B_net = B_PS + B_QN     (both inward)

Therefore, current is 20 A and it is perpendicular into the page.
