Given below are two statements

Statement I : Bio-Savart's law gives us the expression for the magnetic field strength of an infinitesimal current element (Idl) of a current carrying conductor only.

Statement II : Bio-Savart's law is analogous to Coulomb's inverse square law of charge q, with the former being related to the field produced by a scalar source, Idl while the latter being produced by a vector source, q.

In light of above statements choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

  1. Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect
  2. Statement I is incorrect and Statement II is correct
  3. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
  4. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

Answer

(A) Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect
