Q4. Magnetic Field on the Axis of a Square Loop Find the magnetic field on the axis of a square wire with a current I flowing counterclockwise using the Biot- Savart law directly. Each length of the wire is L so you may take it from -L/2 to L/2 on x and y axis to find the field on the z-axis.

Step 1

First, let's define the coordinate system. We can choose the center of the square loop as the origin (0,0,0), with the x-axis pointing to the right, the y-axis pointing upwards, and the z-axis pointing out of the page. Show more…
