The figure shows the cross section of a long cylindrical conductor through which an axial hole of radius $r$ is drilled with its centre at point $A$ . $O$ is the centre of the conductor. If an identical hole were to be drilled centred at point $B$ while maintaining the same current density the magnitude of magnetic field at $O$ 
  • A
     will increase
  • B
    will decrease
  • C
    will remains the same
  • DMay increase or decrease depending on the value of $r$ .
