Solution

The correct option is C On all and the above
The Biot Savart law is used for computing the resultant magnetic field B at position r generated by a steady current I.
According to it
B=μ0I4πIdl×rr3.
So magnetic field at a distance r due to the current carrying conductor depends on:
i) the value of current
ii)small part of length of conductor
iii) and, the angle between the line joining the given point to the mid point of small length and the distance between the small length of the point.
