Q. 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
104T, 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=4π107NA2)
