The correct answer is: 0.4 G
$\beta=\frac{\mu_0 I}{4 \pi r}\left(\sin \theta_1+\sin \theta_2\right)$
$\begin{aligned} & =\frac{10^{-7} \times 30}{12 \times 10^{-2}}\left(2 \times \frac{16}{20}\right) \\ & =4 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~T} \\ & =0.4 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~T} \\ & =0.4 \mathrm{G}\end{aligned}$
