URGENT!!!!!!!!!
Consider a loop of circular wire of radius R
located in the xy plane and carrying a
stable current I, the center of the loop
coincides with the origin of the coordinate
system. Calculate the magnetic field at an
axial point P at a distance z from the center
of the loop, using cylindrical coordinates,
and explicitly show that the component of
the field B at P perpendicular to the z axis is
zero. Indicate with p and k the unit vectors
of the cylindrical coordinates. Note: you
must solve the exercise in a vector way.
