Magnetostatics: Magnetic Field of an Infinite Wire Magnetic Field Strength (H) of an Infinite Wire Deriving the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying conductor using the Biot-Savart Law. Vector Geometry Diagram Current (I) ρ (Distance) Point P H Field (a_φ) The magnetic field H always forms a circle (a_φ) perpendicular to the current flow. 1. The Fundamental Law To find the magnetic field intensity ( H ) at a point P near a wire, we start with the Biot-Savart Law for a differential current element: dH = (I dL...
