An infinitely long conductor $\text{PQR}$ is bent to form a right angle as shown. A current $I$ flows through $\text{PQR}$ The magnetic field due to this current at the point $M$ is $\mathrm{H}_1$. Now another infinitely long straight conductor $QS$ is connected at $Q$ so that the current is $\mathrm{I} / 2$ in $QR$ as well as in $QS ,$ The current in $PQ$ remaining unchanged. The magnetic field at $M$ is now $\mathrm{H}_2$. The ratio $\mathrm{H}_1 / \mathrm{H}_2$ is given by
