A long straight wire of circular cross-section (radius $a$) is carrying steady current $I$. The current $I$ is uniformly distributed across this cross-section. The magnetic field is
  • AZero in the region $r < a$ and inversely proportional to $r$ in the region $r > a$
  • BInversely proportional to $r$ in the region $r < a$ and uniform throughout in the region $r > a$
  • CDirectly proportional to $r$ in the region $r < a$ and inversely proportional to $r$ in the region $r > a$
  • DUniform in the region $r < a$ and inversely proportional to distance $r$ from the axis, in the region $r > a$
