The correct answer is:
Suppose the length of wire is
Then, for the circle of n turns
The magnetic field, , where R is the radius of the circle
Then =B......(i)
Here, .......(ii)
Now, if the same wire is turned into a coil of n turns of radius a then,
.......(iii)
Thus,
Now, the magnetic field for the coil of n turns, is
Then, for the circle of n turns
The magnetic field, , where R is the radius of the circle
