Magnetic field due to currentHard
Question
A long cylindrical conductor with large cross section carries an electric current distributed uniformly over its cross-section. Magnetic field due to this current is :
A. maximum at either ends of the conductor and minimum at the midpoint
B. maximum at the axis of the conductor
C. minimum at the surface of the conductor
D. minimum at the axis of the conductor
E. same at all points in the cross-section of the conductor
