The Biot-Savart law asserts magnetic field dB due to an element dI carrying a steady current i at a point p at a distance r from the current element is

\(dB = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}i = \frac{dl\times r}{r^3}\) 

Study fig. carefully. To obtain the total field at \(P_1\) we must integrate this vector expression over the entire length of the conductor.

Expression for the magnetic field at the centre of a current carrying circular loop: Suppose that RS is a circular loop and I is fitting by this. On it centre so find out value of magnetic field it device in little parts cause at dl little part magnetic field on centre

Expression for the magnetic field

\(dB = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\times \frac{Idl\sin \theta}{r^2}\)

Here \(\theta = 90^\circ, \sin \theta = 90^\circ =1; \ dB = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}.\frac{Idl}{r^2}\) 

Cause of all loop magnetic field

\(\int dB = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}.\frac{I}{r^2}\int dl\ or \ B = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} \frac{1}{r^2}.2\pi r \ or\ B = \frac{\mu_0I}{2r} \) 

If number of in twists in the loop then \(B = \frac{\mu_0nI}{2r}\).
