Question

A metal wire is formed into a circle with a diameter of 10 cm, placed on a horizontal plane. Just above the center of the circle is a straight metal wire, infinitely long, parallel to the plane of the circle. The distance between the circular wire and the straight wire is 5 cm, and each wire is supplied with a direct current of 5 Amperes. The direction of current in the circular wire is rotating right, and the direction of current in the straight wire is from right to left

Graph the direction of the magnetic field vector at the center of the circle (called point A)!
