Answer:
I will explain the concept of magnetic field and how it can be calculated.
Explanation:
The formula for magnetic field at the center of a loop is given as
B = μ
I / 2R
where B is the magnetic field
R is the radius of the loop
I is the current
and μ
is the magnetic permeability of free space which is a constant 4π ×
newtons/ampere²
If the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 0, then μ
I = 0
I = 0 which means there will be no current flow in the loop.
