Homework Statement
A conductor carrying current ‘I’ is in the form of a semicircle AB of radius ‘R’ and lying in the x-y plane with its centre at origin as shown in the figure. Find the magnitude of ∫B.dl for the circle 3x2 +3z2 =R2 in the x-z plane due to curve AB.
Ans (1-√3/2)μ0I
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Applying Ampere’s Law ∫B.dl= μ0I for the closed loop i.e the given circle ∫B.dl turns out to be zero since there is no current flowing through the loop .But this is incorrect .
I would be grateful if somebody could help me with the problem.
