The correct option is
B On
ABLet us assume the
coordinate axis as shown in the figure.
For any point lying on
CO,
→B due to wire
1 and wire
2 points perpendicularly outwards ie (
^k)
So,
→Bnet cannot be zero for any point lying on
CO
For any point lying on
OD,
→B due to wire
1 and wire
2 points perpendicularly inwards. ie (
−^k)
So,
→Bnet cannot be zero for any point lying on
OD
Now, For any point lying on
OA,
→B due to wire
1 points perpendicularly outards. ie (
^k) and due to wire
2 points perpendicularly inwards.ie
−^k
So,
→Bnet can be zero for any point lying on
OA
Now, For any point lying on
OB,
→B due to wire
1 points perpendicularly inwards. ie (
−^k) and due to wire
2 points perpendicularly outwards.ie
^k
So,
→Bnet can be zero for any point lying on
OB
Hence, option
(b) is the correct answer.
