Five very long, straight wires are bound together to form a small cable. Currents carried by the wires are ${I_1} = 20\,A,$ ${I_2} = - \,6\,A,$ ${I_3} = 12\,A,\,{I_4} = - 7\,A,\,{I_5} = 18\,A.$ The magnetic induction at a distance of $10\, cm$ from the cable is

(d) ${i_{net}} = 20 - 6 + 12 - 7 + 18 = 37\,A$ so $B = \frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}.\frac{{2i}}{a}$
$ = {10^{ - 7}} \times \frac{{2 \times 37}}{{10 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}} = 74 \times {10^{ - 6}}\,T = 74\,\mu T$

    A uniform magnetic field $B$ exists in the region between $x=0$ and $x=\frac{3 R}{2}$ (region $2$ in the figure) pointing normally into the plane of the paper. A particle with charge $+Q$ and momentum $p$ directed along $x$-axis enters region $2$ from region $1$ at point $P_1(y=-R)$. Which of the following option(s) is/are correct?

    $[A$ For $B>\frac{2}{3} \frac{p}{QR}$, the particle will re-enter region $1$

    $[B]$ For $B=\frac{8}{13} \frac{\mathrm{p}}{QR}$, the particle will enter region $3$ through the point $P_2$ on $\mathrm{x}$-axis

    $[C]$ When the particle re-enters region 1 through the longest possible path in region $2$ , the magnitude of the change in its linear momentum between point $P_1$ and the farthest point from $y$-axis is $p / \sqrt{2}$

    $[D]$ For a fixed $B$, particles of same charge $Q$ and same velocity $v$, the distance between the point $P_1$ and the point of re-entry into region $1$ is inversely proportional to the mass of the particle

    At $t = 0$ a charge $q$ is at the origin and moving in the $y-$ direction with velocity $\overrightarrow v  = v\,\hat j .$ The charge moves in a magnetic field that is for $y > 0$ out of page and given by $B_1 \hat z$ and for $y < 0$ into the page and given $-B_2 \hat z .$ The charge's subsequent trajectory is shown in the sketch. From this information, we can deduce that
