Consider the situation described in the previous problem. Suppose the current i enters the loop at the point A and leaves it at the point B. Find the magnetic field at the centre of the loop.

Magnetic vector B due to BC and due to AD at PT equal and opposite.


Hence net vector B = 0


Similarly, due to AB and CD at P = 0


The net vector B at the centre of the square loop = 0
