Answer: (C) A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

(A)

Here net magnetic field will be sum of magnetic field due to straight wires
ab,deab,de and due to loop bcdbcd.
So,
Bab=μ04πIr=Bde{B}_{ab}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}={B}_{de} (directed out of the plane in both cases)
Bbcd=μ04πIr(2π){B}_{bcd}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(2\pi ) (in the plane)
Thus, magnetic field at
OO is
BO=−μ04πIr+μ04πIr(2π)−μ04πIr{B}_{O}=-\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}+\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(2\pi )-\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}
BO=μ02πIr(π−1){B}_{O}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{2\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(\pi -1) (III)
(B)


Here net magnetic field will be sum of magnetic field due to straight wires
ab,deab,de and semicircular arc bcdbcd.
Bab=μ04πIr=Bde{B}_{ab}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}={B}_{de} (directed out of the plane in both cases)
Bbcd=μ04πIr(π){B}_{bcd}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(\pi ) (out of the plane)
Thus, net magnetic field at
OO is
BO=μ04πIr+μ04πIr(π)+μ04πIr{B}_{O}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}+\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(\pi )+\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}
B0=μ04πIr(π+2){B}_{0}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(\pi +2) (I)
(C)


Here net magnetic field will be sum of magnetic field due to straight wires
ab,deab,de and due to loop bcdbcd.
Bab=μ04πIr{B}_{ab}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r} (directed in the plane)
Bbcd=μ04πIr(π){B}_{bcd}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(\pi ) (in the plane)
Bde=0{B}_{de}=0 (passing through the axis)
Thus, magnetic field at
OO is
BO=μ04πIr(π+1){B}_{O}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(\pi +1) (IV)
(D)


Here net magnetic field will be sum of magnetic field due to straight wires
ab,deab,de and due to loop bcdbcd.
Bab=0=Bde{B}_{ab}=0={B}_{de} (passing through the axis)
Bbcd=μ04πIr(π){B}_{bcd}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}}{4\pi }\dfrac{I}{r}(\pi ) (out of the plane)
Thus, magnetic field at
OO is
BO=μ0I4r{B}_{O}=\dfrac{{\mu }_{0}I}{4r} (II).
