Refer to a long, straight wire carrying constant current I. What can be concluded about the magnitude of the magnetic field at distance a from the wire?

"the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point of distance a around a wire, carrying a constant current I, is inversely proportional to the distance a of the wire from that point"

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic field from a long straight wire (A approximately a finite length of wire at least for close points around the wire.) decreases with distance from the wire. It does not follow the inverse square rule as is the electric field from a point charge. We can then say that "the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point of distance a around a wire, carrying a constant current I, is inversely proportional to the distance a of the wire from that point"

From the Biot-Savart rule,

B = μI/2πR

where B is the magnitude of the magnetic field

I is the current through the wire

μ is the permeability of free space or vacuum

R is the distance between the point and the wire, in this case is = a

you have to draw the persons position over there

it is a negative acceleration
