Question

An infinitely long conductor PQR is bent to form a right angle as shown. A current I flows through PQR The magnetic field due to this current at the point M is H1. Now another infinitely long straight conductor QS is connected at Q so that the current is I/2 in QR as well as in QS, The current in PQ remaining unchanged. The magnetic field at M is now  The ratio   is given by
