Subtopic: Ampere's Circuital Law

If a long hollow copper pipe carries a direct current, the magnetic field associated with the current will be :
only inside the pipe
only outside the pipe
both inside and outside the pipe
neither inside nor outside the pipe

Solution:

Inside the pipe current enclosed will be zero so magnetic field will also be zero. Outside the pipe there will be net Magnetic field
